He arrive din 1886 and died in 1900. I don't know, if the ever made any attempt to breed with him and Begum, but I'm surd the didn't. It looks like they used the same exhibit, but maybe in erxchange.

Just unreal having them live as long as they did for the times, makes you wonder why the modern collection plan went wrong

@Tim May I've just been reading this blog about him (in life and death) , definitely an interesting specimen with a fascinating history.
