Beauval has received multiple new Manatee males recently and they already have quite a group, so it seems to me that they will house two separate groups, one bachelor and one breeding.

The zoo has posted quite a number of pictures and extra info on their website with regards to the dome:

Nouveauté 2020 : dôme équatorial | ZooParc de Beauval

It looks very much like a more crowded Gondwanaland, but that was maybe to be expected, it still looks very interesting though.

That's good to hear about the manatees

It gives me Leipzig feelings too. I'm really excited about this! I'll try to visit it this summer, the dome and Tasmanian devils are enough reasons to go back.

The dome will also have Bornean forest dragons, a species not found anywhere else in France or even Europe.

where from?

I'm guessing one of their outposts for orangutans in the Indonesian rainforest?

 

[Therabu]

Bornean earless monitors will come from Praha where breeding already occured as well as in Moscow or Vienna (first European breeding success in 2016).

I heard douc langurs will come from Dusit Zoo.

Do you know how many males and/or females ?

 

[Haasje]

Manatee (male) has been born in the soon to equatorial dome, according to FB. So a new highlight to look forward too for when it will open next month.

What is the approximate male/female ratio in Europe now?

 

[Choco115]

Yesterday three adult false ghavials arrived in the new dome (they already received eight young individuals). I don’t know the gender.

If you're not keeping up with the Carnet du Bord videos on the zoo's YouTube page, I would recommend them. They're quite short, but you they offer a fun behind the scenes look!

Yep, I've been following it since it started. Really interesting!
