Animals you have seen mated in a zoo

Black Rhinos, Sacred Ibis, Radiated Tortoise. I'm sure there are a few more I am forgetting.
 
I once watched th bull elephant at Chester do his stuff I think I uploaded some old shots of it in the Chester zoo section.
It wasn't official but it was happening!
 
White Rhinos
Black Rhinos
Indian Elephants
African Elephants
Cape Buffalo
Forest Buffalo
African Lions
Eland
Blackbucks
Lechwe
Axis Deer
Pere Davids Deer (including males rucking and calling females)
Ostrich (what a clumsy sight that is, a miracle anything is fertilised!)
Rhea
Bactrian Camels
American Bison (including males rucking/fighting for dominance which is impressive)
Olive Baboons
Chimps
Mandrills
My Mediterranean Spur-thighed tortoise 'Fred' and my steel toe capped boots :confused: ,, bless him, he tries..

The vast majority of the above is from several years back when I had more
zoo 'opening hours time' on my hands and would spend hours on hours watching a particular species at Knowsley Safari which was only a 10 min drive from my old house. Sadly there are fewer animals their now, although diversity has been maintained, unfortunately the Bison have gone now too... I wish they would do something proactive so I have the opportunity to see Amur Tigers mate too in the near future!!
