Congrats to you for all the hard work put in and now a first baby.
New lion exhibit will be opened next year, zoo will get two young males from Plzen. Part of it will be an exhibit for some mongoose species, who will be able to go to the lion exhibit as well.
Plzen doesn´t have two young lion males. I think Chleby will get lions from Liberec.
This is very good news indeed but where do they go from here breeding wise?Third douc baby born.

San Deigo zoo use to have a nice breeding group but I believe they had problems trying to import new bloodlines I hope that is not going to happen with this group!Well I imagine ideally they want to keep expanding the group, and eventually more zoos will copy their husbandry techniques to create a sustainable european population.
it could be finished this year.
From what I see on Facebook, the new lion enclosure is also home to banded mongooses !The exhibit is now finished (looks absolutely horrible) and first inhabitant is young male from Plzen. The exhibit will be officially opened at the end of September.
They are now also apparently trying to get a female.
Some young red-shanked doucs are leaving the zoo soon. It is not said where they are going.
