July 27 2013 I think this one was the Little Grison but because the pictures were so bad and many had to be deleated I\'m not 100 % sure !

"De Paay" has greater grisons, the only ones in Europe. There are no Lesser Grisons in (public collections in) Europe.

This is indeed a greater grison. Where the still behind the scenes? They are rebuilding some exhibits at the moment. Have you seen the squirrels?

If you read vogelcommando's report in the De Paay thread, he has learnt that the collection has inadvertently ended up recieving a Lesser Grison when trying to source a mate for their remaining Greater Grison - one of the latter species having died recently.

It really is beyond me why some enterprising collection in Europe hasn't imported these animals. Not everybody gets off on seeing Meerkats.

Wow so there is a lesser grison visible again? That's wonderful news.

Nop, both greater and lesser are kept behind the scenes.
@ Rupicola, no the giant squirrels not found
