When I visited in late December he was in the small enclosure and the female and young male were in the main part.

I don't think anyone on here can give you an exact answer!! Some time in the future.....
IT still looks mainly like there’s a lot of diggers and I didn’t see many fences so I’d say still a couple months atleast
Am I right in saying one of the males came from Wilhelma?
(From there facebook) Vladimir the male tiger was pts
With heavy hearts we have said goodbye to our beloved Vladimir. The sad decision was made last night with our vets as he was struggling with a chronic back problem that had suddenly worsened. He was a big part of Yorkshire Wildlife Park and our hearts go out to our Rangers who have loved and cared for him since he arrived at Land of the Tiger

Yes Vlad was the only male tiger they had. Father to the three cubs Harley, Hope and Hector.
Looking ahead, could they not source one of the males from Whipsnade? Or is that now an over represented bloodline?
There’s 3 enclosures.
When they still had the female cub they used to swap her and Tschuna between the bigger one and the smaller one so it could hold a tiger for a day or two on a rotation basis.
On ztl it say ywp currently has black swans, scarlet and blue and yellow macaws, common marmoset, limousine cattle, champans zebra, Guinea fowl,
Burrowing and barn owls, moongoose and some reptiles does anyone know we’re they are in the park or if there ofshow

I think the reptiles are offshow but get brought out for the shows.
Guinea fowl are free roaming
Black swan used to be in the goose pond
The macaws used to be part of the flight shows
Common marmoset are no longer held after the cotton tops replaced them in their enclosure
Limousine cattle were part of the world farm, and then at the end of the car park in an off show paddock, with the other world farm animals
The owls used to be held in the wooded area near the lemurs, with other birds of prey and small mammals, but these aviaries were demolished
I also would like to know about the mongoose, however, as I’ve not seen them in a while…
The reptiles are held in the ‘woodland classrooms’ which are used for school trips.
.I had no idea the Guinea fowl free range
. Are the cattle near old or new car park
. Once i saw a picture of a moongoose in the offshow area near lions
The Guineafowl used to be a part of the ‘sheep and goat walkthrough’ but have since become free-range. They are kept in a coop next to the geese at night and in poor weather. I usually see them around the tsavo bake house or in their coop
The cattle were near the house upon entry to the old car park. I don’t know if this is still the case as obviously that is no longer accessible to public.
Interesting about the mongoose, it would be nice if they are still held
