Can it sadly be assumed that the collection no longer keeps their jerboa, judging by the arrival of these species? A shame if so, considering as recently as June they had seemingly received new individuals :(
 
I didn't notice any jerboa during my visit, so you might be correct in your assumption, unfortunately. :(

Could they have been mixed in with the hedgehog tenrecs, do you think? I'm not sure a mix of those two species is possible, but the enclosure is more than big enough for it.
 
My visit today confirmed they went out of the jerboa over the summer.
