A good idea, Paignton used to do this as well with a board near the entrance for births and arrivals. Perhaps they still do.

Chester however like to keep their breedings a secret.

I like the idea of having a whiteboard with news listed. I don't think I've seen something like this before

Also Rotterdam Zoo did it, don't know if they still do it.

It's a bit home-made, but I like it. Bristol takes the trouble to display some juvenile reptiles in this area of the Reptile House plus some tadpoles and froglets in the Amphipod: this board complements these displays well.

Why does it say the Pancake tortoises are Vulnerable? Did they used to be?

@amur leopard According the Red List entry they were listed as Vulnerable from their first real assessment in 1996 until last year, when the new assessment was published with them at Critically Endangered.
