Do you also know from which zoo?New species for Zie-Zoo : 2 pairs of African penguins arrived
I would have a guess know what ... (but I will not go speculate).
The yellow-throated martens are on display now. They are kept in the former clouded leopard/coati/binturong cage. The exhibit and especially the inside eclosure has been slightly renovated.
The two smaller enclosures next to it received an update too. They were also merged to almost double the land area of the otters. The Egyptian mongooses went off-show again.

I'm thinking about revisiting Zie-Zoo (in a combined trip with Best and/or Beesd). Does anyone know if the following species are on show yet or that they are (still) kept behind the scenes? Last time I was in Zie-Zoo, I expected several rarities based on ZTL, but some of these were still kept behind the scenes.

One correction: the hedgehog can be seen in the animal presentation. Every time other animals are chosen so you're not guaranteed.

It is a pack of 12!
The bird collection is getting better. A new aviary holds the bateleurs as well as two southern ground hornbills. The guira cuckoos that have been behind the scenes for some time went onshow next to the South American building.
The former sika deer paddock now holds a few Cameroon sheep and domestic geese. The arctic fox, Eurasian eagle owls and ferruginous hawks have left the collection. The arctic fox enclosure houses a serval temporarily, as the breeding pair is busy with their new litter.
Excellent, I love a good size group of Dholes and I never tire of Guira Cuckoo. I look forward to seeing them, and various other species, when I visit soon (but what I really, really want is to see is those mongooses they've got
)
two spider monkeys have arrived.
What species of spider monkey and from where exactly?
The excactly species i wouldnt know. One of Them came from Dortmund for sure, the other one im not 100% sure. There isnt allot of information given, uncomfortably.
If by Dortmund, you mean Dortmund Zoo, then zootierliste doesn't mention any being kept there since 2003.
One of the people working there said they came from there. So thats odd yeah. the excact species is Ateles fusciceps.
In addition Zie-Zoo joined the Washu project (they sell their chocolate), which is the zoo's first conservation effort aside from the breeding programmes.
