There is a sign to say that 'Pedro' (the first red river hog to be born at Whipsnade) was born on 3rd October 2010, but no information about the source of the adult pair.
Like you, Pertinax, I assume that these are the ex-Regent's Park animals, but I'm not sure.

I think the previous 0.2 at Whipsnade were probably earlier young from this same pair, which have now bred again at Whipsnade. They may have had other litters at ZSL in between of course. I'd say we'd be on a strong bet it is the same (ex ZSL) pair.
