Boss & Samira are brother & sister from the same litter and I think are Hugo x Nikita. Harry has the same parents. Ahmale is their sister but unsure whether she is full or half sister. Hope this helps

If plans are the same as about a year or so ago, you'll be surprised.

The news was that the 3 Sulawesi crested macaque moved up to Paignton Zoo after looking into the genetics and integrated with their breeding group.

@TriUK judging by the way @ThomasNotTom worded his post I would presume so. This is only my assumption/opinion but I think that Bears may move into the vacated Sulawesi Crested Macaque pit.If bears don’t take up residence my second guess would be a species of Primate or even Ape.

Part of the future collection planning, yes. So who knows what the plans will be now... As we all know, it's been a tough year on the trust
