That is excellent news. The komodo dragon does sound like an odd one out but it is still a great species to bring back to Japan. I know that iZoo and Higashiyama also have/ had plans to bring back komodos but that seems to be taking a hot minute.

This is excellent news considering all of the species that Japan has lost and rarities Japan is in decline of. Can you show me the article that confirms this is happening?
it would be good for you to translate the text on page 8 of the file.

Apparently, iZoo has faced some kind of trouble. According to the iZoo owner, they weren't able to do so because they were harassed by officials from other zoo. I don't understand at all why this has affected the introduction of dragons from Indonesia.
Do you have an updated 2024 list for Chilean pudu in Japan zoos and Tokyo Tama Zoo Park?
They are planning a quokka walk-through in the future. They must have been planning the walk-through since they built the quokka exhibit. There are already double doors at the entrance and exit of the quokka exhibit.

Tama Zoological Park has never housed any pudus. In Japan, pudus are only kept in Saitama and Kobe. Saitama currently has 2.5.0 pudus. Kobe only has one pair that came from Saitama.
Here are two pieces of news from SCZ:
They will start exhibiting the Great Balkhan mouse-like hamster tomorrow, for the first time in six years.
They have transferred a group of gundis, previously kept in the small mammal house’s backyard, to Adachi Ward Biological Garden.

Her parents were of Chinese descent, so she must have been genetically valuable in captivity. Not only in Japan, but also in the United States, her offspring have gone on to reproduce, making her contribution highly significant.
Here are three updates from the park:
Two pairs of Damaraland mole rat, which arrived from Kumamoto last November, have recently bred. One pair gave birth to a single baby in January, while the other pair had four babies in February.
The Cairo spiny mouse exhibit will reopen on March 11th, after a seven-year hiatus.
The indoor exhibit for quokkas will open on March 13th. As quokkas are nocturnal, the space has been designed to suit their needs and will be open throughout the park's regular hours. However, the outdoor exhibit will remain open for only about three hours.

Do you know where either of these are exhibited? I was there today and did not see either.
According to the zoo’s announcement on its website the spiny mice were in the pony house.
