Anyone know where these animals came from?
 
Stud book surplus?

I'd assume so. West Midlands had them from somewhere on the continent, (think it might have been Berlin Tierpark?) and kept them for a couple of years in an enclosure that was far from perfect (see link below) before taking them off show at the end of the 2010 season and replacing them with B&W Ruffed Lemur. They were then shipped to Tayto Park in September 2011

Thanks for that Nisha. West Midlands doesn't surprise me, still seems to be run on similar lines to when it was first opened.
