Pileated Gibbon at Blackpool Zoo 10th April 2011

Ivy

This is Ivy born 29th June 1989 at Twycross Zoo. Ivy has had three mates being successful with just one, Chamoa who is her current mate. I don't know when Ivy arrived but Blackpool have only ever had two females at once which is currently since the 6th May 2010 when Ivy had a female baby Hollie. Hollie was the first ever gibbon born at Blackpool.

Seronimo the male on the island was Ivy's original mate but Seronimo is a very nervous gibbon and his other mate (Not a she, another male!) drowned on the island exhibit. Seronimo has been alone ever since, the zoo hope when Hollie is mature enough she can become a potiental mate for Seronimo and create a second breeding pair for Blackpool. Am I right in saying Twycross have the best breeding record for the Pileated's?
