Fair enough. At least the replacement of the leopards with the completely inappropriate servals seems a bit poor to me for the "perfect" and rich zoo at Brugelette.

They kept wombats in their Indonesian area and giant otters in the Chinese garden for many years, so it isn't something that is unknown to them

Could someone tell me where the giant luzon cloud rats are located exactly? Maybe in the oasis, if so where in oasis.
Indeed in the Oasis. They are in a small and fairly dark exhibit around the mock next to the bear cuscus/mouse deer exhibit.
When you enter the Oasis from the entrance near the farm/Andalusian garden (not the larger entrance near the horse paddock) and go to the right immediately past the second set of doors, you will first see the hornbill and Amazon parrot aviaries, and the cloud rats should be the third exhibit seen, opposite the Pesquet's parrots.
If you can't find them immediately, be sure to look in the dark corners of the mock rock. But seeing them is very hit and miss.

Is it possible to enter the indoor area of the koalas? If not, why not?
It is only open when there are volunteers present. The last few times I visited, always on week days, it was never open. But the outdoor viewing area on the porch usually was. That does not give you the greatest view, but might still allow you to see a koala or a potoroo if you are super lucky. I think the volunteers will probably only be there during weekends and holidays.
The reason is probably to allow the animals the rest they need, as there are no windows separating the viewing area and the exhibits indoors.

Tip: Go there first thing, as the koala house will be open. (This may vary on staff levels)
Does anyone know when bookings will open for stays past January 2025? I'm planning a trip from the United States and wanting to book a one night dream stay with animals before it sells out on my limited date options. Also the website has blocked my IP address because I apparently check the website too often to see if availability changes.

The 2 lioness's rescued from Ukraine have been released from Quarantine. They will be in the enclosure with the White tigers on a rotational basis. This is before they leave to the Big Cat Sanctuary next year

2 Capybaras have joined the animals already present at the renovated farm. I don't know if this is a good combination though... There isn't really a lot of water at the farm.

Anyone has great knowledge about Pairi Daiza. I am trying to find about Canelle(Cinnamon) the asiatic black bear that went to Zoo Granby in 2021. She was a mother to two in Pairi Daiza. She is around 16 years old. When was Canelle born, who were her parents? I could not find anything about her cubs or any information about her. The photo in the link shows Canelle in the middle with two other Asian black bear(presumably her two cubs)
Thank you in advance

I saw an article online saying Pairi Daiza plans to increase the number of “worlds” to twelve from eight. With the islands of the rising sun and the sanctuary project being the ninth and tenth respectively. What will the other to be.
On my most recent trip I noticed murals in the entrance area depicting wildlife from the Arabian peninsula. Will Arabia be one of these worlds?

Two bat-eared foxes are now in the oasis.

Hopefully they will soon move to another exhibit with outdoor access, none of the exhibits in the Oasis are particularly large for this species or have outdoor access.
