Guess the zoo

I go for Duisburg. They had a forest elephant back in the 80ies. I know there aren't any forest elephants left in Europe, but in Japan there are still some. Maybe there?
 
What was the first zoo to breed a Sumatran rhinoceros?

And what was unusual about the offspring?
 
that was Calcutta wasn't it? And the parents were of different subspecies.

Too easy.

Indeed; born in Alipore Zoo, Calcutta in 1889.

The father was a Dicerorhinus sumatrensis sumatrensis; the mother a
Dicerorhinus sumatrensis lasiotis
 
it's been mentioned a few times in Sumatran Rhino threads, so I was lucky really.

My question:

The so-called False Potto Pseudopotto martini is known from only two museum specimens. One of these (the holotype) was originally living in which zoo?
