White-lipped Peccaries

31/12/2016
I have seen Chacoan peccaries (zoo), I have seen collared peccaries (both wild and zoo), but I have never seen white-lipped peccaries, either in a zoo or even a photo until now. Thanks for posting.
 
There are a few around in about half a dozen zoos in Europe so this was only my third time seeing them so they were very nice to see.
According to zootierliste there are actually slightly fewer collections in Europe holding Chacoan Peccaries, though I have actually seen Chacoan Peccaries more often.
Also according to zootierliste, the White-lipped Peccaries held in Europe are the Southern subspecies albirostris.
