Congrats to you for all the hard work put in and now a first baby.
Be nice if more European zoos restart with this fine primate species.
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?
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.
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!
If you want to see all the douc langurs family (with the last addition) :
It would appear the breeding male is only firing Y chromasomes 
Here Webkamery | ZOO Chleby a link to follow the doucs with three webcams.
Video from Zoo Chleby facebook with works on lion exhibit:
it could be finished this year.
according to comments next should be new exposition for porcupine and then maaaybe giraffes
EDIT: forgot new (or reconstructed?) stables for domestic animals, which should come first

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.
From what I see on Facebook, the new lion enclosure is also home to banded mongooses !
Some young red-shanked doucs are leaving the zoo soon. It is not said where they are going.
