Chester Zoo Chester Zoo 2017

[Maguari]

Some working taking place in islands, just on the right after the wobbly bridge, don't know just maintenance or possibly something else, have said before would be good space for tree kangaroo

Image from yesterday here: Service Works on Papua at Chester, 30/09/17 | ZooChat

Nothing much to go on and only a generic sign - I'm assuming just maintenance for now.

They've gone off show while the improvements are made. Is it really important to you where they are?

 

[JoeDK14]

Fair enough, in reality there is nowhere in the zoo they could be while this work occurs.

On show that is

I too, love penguins (my avatar is a hint). I'm trying to think where they are currently being kept but it doesn't matter as long as they are fine

 

[jde7582]

Probably in the buildings outside the zoo main footprint, close to where the other mountain frogs are.

 

[Waddi]

Or in old orang house?

I had hoped to go today for Adpoters Day and ask where the penguins had been moved to. Unfortunately I had to call of my visit because of family illness.

During the avian flu scare we asked about the penguins and how vulnerable they were , we were told that they were still in situ because penguins get stressed indoors

I'm not saying where they are as I don't know if it's supposed to be public knowledge (sorry Zoogiraffe, this is usually your line), but if it reassures people I've seen them and they're fine. They actually seem to be really enjoying their temporary accommodation which has been specially adapted for their use.

There are two binturongs in the same building as the sun bears.

I hope the family illness is nothing too serious - best wishes xx

 

[bongorob]

Thank you Zia, but unfortunately it is very serious.

Is the monorail still running above the areas being developed

Yes as can be seen by images in the Chester album.
