Animals kept at only one zoo outside of their native range

[PossumRoach]

Tarsiers (not sure what species) are held at a Japanese zoo but I don't remember which this is (Ueno zoo ?).

it is Ueno

 

[Onychorhynchus coronatus]

it is Ueno

Yep

 

[TZDugong]

A couple species that come to mind:

Dugong - Toba Aquarium
Philippine Eagle - Jurong Bird Park

Dugongs did range to Japan historically, so depends on how you look at it I suppose.

Hawaiian Monk Seal at Minnesota Zoo.

There's a private place in CA with them.

According to IUCN they still range to Japan - they are present around the Ryukyu Islands.

Aren't there also dugongs at the Sydney Aquarium? That is also outside the range, if we are going by exact geographic range and not by country.

Yeah I believe there's a very, very small population (under 10 individuals), still in the Okinawa area.

I think personally going by country makes more sense, just simpler that way.

It is worth noting though, that Dugongs can occasionally range into New South Wales, while they don't appear in mainland Japan.

Any idea how they obtained them?

There's a private place in CA with them.

Which one?
I believe Pittsburg has the only Northern Elephant seals outside of their native range.

 

[African Grey]

The Long Marine Lab in Santa Cruz California has a male Hawaiian Monk Seal KE18: The Reformed "Bad Boy". Waikiki Aquarium also has a single male Monk Seal.

Rescue.

Interesting! I knew Waikiki kept them but that's in Hawaii so I wasn't counting it.

 

[DaLilFishie]

I've heard Dallas World Aquarium has had Himantura dalyensis (no idea is they still do, I can't find much information on it), which would make it the only aquarium outside of H. dalyensis' range to house it (and one of only 2 aquariums to ever keep the species).

 

[WalkingAgnatha]

Also the only zoo to hold three-toed sloths outside of their native range.

[1Squirrel monkey]

It looks like it hasn’t been mentioned, but as far as I know, Ouwehands Dierenpark (Rhenen) is the only zoo to have the Spotted cuscus (Spilocuscus maculatus), and only one individual

There are currently 11 different European facilities keeping Natal red duikers, most of them being major zoos from important cities.
