I'm fairly certain there must be a few around growing out in holding if not yet on display. I am unaware of any large specimens viewable to the public stateside at least though.
I have heard that the racoons at Xcaret are Cozumel, but I can't actually confirm that.

Commonly kept in Japan, as well as a bird park in France.

Several Indonesian parks like Ragunan and Taman Safari Bogor should have these.

Are Somali Ostriches in captivity?
Yes - there are at least a couple known in the USA. Probably some others elsewhere.
I was doing some general research for my speculative zoo thread; and as part of this project, I am curious to know if any of the following fish species are/were currently/historically kept in captivity?
- Crevalle Jack (Caranx hippos)
- Guinean Barracuda (Sphyraena afra)
- Longfin Crevalle Jack (Caranx fischeri)
- Giant African Threadfin (Polydactylus quadrifilis)
I also forgot to mention that this is my 900th post, so I guess that’s something special to celebrate.

Unless things changed, Dallas and LA have them. Wild Adventures said they did, but they do not (confirmation mine).

Cervalle Jack aren't even really rare. They are found in a lot of dedicated aquariums.

Yeah, they’re most often kept in shark tanks - also at Point Defiance, Chattanooga, and Georgia.
Re: Raccoons in Xcaret; there were none signed as Cozumel Raccoons in 2019 when I was there; if there had been I would have made a real effort to see them.

If you don't mind me asking, how would one go about accessing those old records? I'm deeply interested in the history of the Tarpan (Or rather, the Heck horse) in America.
