Pygmy Marmoset
Golden Headed Lion Tamarin
Black and White Colobus

They don't have de brazzas though.
 
I didn't think they did Roz but they were on a list supplied to me by the zoo so I added them just in case! Just noticed that I put Pied Tamarins on twice, one was meant to be pygmy marmosets!
Am going on Wednesday so will be on a mission to photograph at least 1 of each of the species of primate while I'm there :)
 
And an easy one here too

HIGHLAND WILDLIFE PARK - Japanese macaque.

If rumours from a few years are to be believed there is a chance that some if not all gelada from Edinburgh COULD end up here one day.
 
Yorkshire wild life park:

3 black and White ruffed lemur (2:1)
3 brown lemurs (0:3)
8 ring tails (3:5) 4 soon to be moved onto a new collection, leaving 2:2.

Twycross no longer have Black-eared Marmosets,and very sadly no longer have the Phayres Languar as she passed away early this year .In fact both of the species have been gone for over 6 months from Twycross,so by Twycross standards that list is very upto date for them.:rolleyes:
 
Does anyone know where 1.1 of the 2.2 Twycross Roloway monkeys went? ISIS now just list one pair.

I wonder why they are sending the red-tailed guenon to monkey haven and not to a european collection with females. Is it a very old animal/badly socialised animal?

I think the Roloways were pretty old so maybe death is more likely than a transfer?

The red-tailed Guenon has been alone at Twycross a long time so I imagine he might have social problems by now, even if he didn't before (!) However I would think no other European zoo wanted him as Twycross did send another pair of their rarer Guenons(Whiteside's) a couple of years ago to Europe(France) to join a breeding programme, so it wouldn't be refusal to make him available on their part.
