@DaLilFishie@Zoofan15 I did find it interesting Taronga mentioned Mr Hobbs recently on their socials as if he was still alive and at the zoo which has perhaps mislead most visitors to believe he's still around.
@DaLilFishie Wow, I'm surprised that's still up. They really need to update that. I've seen some zoos just tape over signs, but most re move them promptly.
@DaLilFishie I believe that signage you refer to just refers to his rescue story of which they seem to be very passionate about as @Zoofan15 mentioned above. It's quite a story and has been featured on their socials on countless occasions.
@Jambo Melbourne Zoo have Mzuri and his IVF conception; Perth Zoo have Misha the Kiss Giraffe; and Taronga have Mr Hobbs and his Cambodia rescue. Three stories from three zoos that persist long after the animals have passed.
