Thanks Embu, your right with the 3 hybrid - they all born 2003
Cillian and Settanta came from Fota, Sebastian from Chester all in 2005.
The Species Report 01.01.22 show me only two hybrid bulls and Cillian still can´t find in the net
this year on an photo - last photos October/November2021 so think he is no longer there.

OK very interesting, didn't know Sebastion was born at Chester zoo, I'd be interested to know if you can discover when Cillian died, not seen any announcement anywhere( not that places always announce deaths)
 
Someone who visited Port Lympne a few weeks ago told me that old female rhino Arusha isn't alive anymore. When did she pass away?

Hi Jola, all of the above cows with exception of Rukuru are still at PL. Rukuru is now over at Howletts with Sammy and Damara. Although as she is a daughter of Bull Sammy, I’m not too sure what the motive of the transfer was.

The current Bulls at PL are:
Kasungu - b.2015 Zambezi ll x Damara
Zuri - b.2016 Sammy x Ruaha
Malewa - b.2018 Sammy x Kissima
Azizi - b.2018 Sammy x Nyota
