Great Hoof-Stock/Antelope Enclosures/Collection

@jedibiscuits

I'm not sure about the caribou but I think the other two my go into the Asian Highlands exhibit for Amur Tigers. The exhibit will be built after Asian Tropics.
 
Sun, are all those species at Tallinn? That is a truely amazing collection! Thanks for posting it!
 
@Al: You're welcome. To answer your question: well, I saw most of the posted species at Tallinn less than two weeks ago. And I have it from a good source that they might get Saigas soon...;)

I still have the lingering hope that some Nearctic or low temperate zoos in the western zoo world will be able to set up a successful saiga breeding programme (from a perspective of conservation breeding and eggs in several baskets ... it makes pure sense). :D

At the moment: some Central Asian republics and Moskwa Zoo in its out-station have breeding groups of saiga on breeding farms only.
 
sadly the Los Angles Zoo heavily reduced there hoofstock collection, some of the creatures that they used to have included

Giant eland
Gaur
Pere davids deer
Prezwalskis wild horse
Malayan tapir
Cretan wild goat
Southern white rhinoceros
Sumatran rhino
Rocky mountain goat
Dalls sheep
Siberian ibex
Common warthog
Jentinks duiker
Zebra duiker
Eastern black rhinoceros
Armenian mouflon
Aoudad
Hartmann's mountain zebra
Alpine chamois
Bairds tapir
Guanco
Bactrian camel
American bison
Common pronghorn
Suni antelope
plus many other species of ungulate

many of them either died or were given away
if those animals died, cant they just get new specimens of those species or if they gave them away, that was a HORRIBLE :( choice on there part, they shot themselves in the foot and should have thought more before taking such an action

i miss diverse hoofstock collections
and btw does anybody else know that the la zoo had hoofstock wise that is no longer at the los angeles zoo ?

About half of these are at Fossil Rim it seems. I did not look it up on ISIS, but I was there less than a week ago and I swear I saw like a hundred blackbuck.
 
Too many to keep track of at FR. There are more blackbuck in Texas than in India.
 
No FR's ISIS records for several species are not correct. The have probably hundreds of blackbuck. Nor do they list all their red or fallow deer.
