They've been there simnce 2009 according to Zootierliste - I honestly can't remember for myself if there were more than these two (saw a lot of animals that day!) but there were only 1.1 in November 2010 (again taken from Zootierliste).
 
Berlin keeps an old brace from Antwerp Zoo (they received 1,2 from Antwerp, but 0,1 died in 2010). The zoo's last breeding was in 1968.
 
Thanks. I hope Berlin zoogoers enjoy them while they can. I think they will not be able to replace them when they die. That is true for other zoos with Hamlyn's in Europe nowadays too- unless breeding suddenly increases.
