Massai-Giraffes at Antwerp Zoo-since when ?
They took one female from Basel when the latter zoo switched to Kordofan - in 2011, according to Zootierliste.
I saw her at the start of September - picture attached. She was the last Masai Giraffe in Europe proper - the only others on Zootierliste are at Faruk Yalcin Zoo in Turkey.

Koala's and Tree Kangaroo will join the collection later this year Quote from Facebook:
Great news! Starting from the spring half-term we welcome koalas in our Zoo. The animals move in a new stay near the Flemish garden. With tree kangaroos as neighbors, these marsupials undoubtedly for a new impetus. We are proud of the arrival of these timid animals. As a result, the ZOO works to the international breeding program.
