This was taken on the 04 08 2014 I just wondered as to why they left the collection as they were beautiful looking animals
 
Has to have been about 5 years since they left now... It's a shame but I don't think they were actually in the collection for a very long time anyway?
 
Chester held this beautiful species from 2012 to 2017. They bred several calves but only reared one, and she died at a young age after suffering from an infection. If I remember correctly they were very nervous animals and did not make a good exhibit.

Great picture by the way Adrian.
