What trail are they on now because I thought they were originally at the bottom of Bashor bridge.
Are These in Captivity? #2
- Thread starter The Cassowary
- Start date
I don't know. One of the photos is taken from above and one is level with the animal so they're on (were at least) exhibit. They're probably where you're thinking below the bridge.
This image has them as being under the stairs in Absolutley Apes Siberian musk deer - ZooChat

Any swifts, martins, or swallows?
These have been discussed earlier in the thread I believe.
I can confirm they are there as of March.
Are the insect groups Embiidina (webspinners or footspinners), Zoraptera (Angel insects) and Mantophasmatodea kept anywhere, especially outside of specialist collections? I would also like to ask about Grylloblattodea, but considering their specialized habitat, I would be surprised if they are kept.
Are any of these fishes currently kept in zoos or aquaria?

Atlantic Trumpetfish apparently can be kept in home aquaria, although I have not heard of zoos or aquariums with them.

Florida Museum Website claims that Atlantic Trumpetfish are popular in public aquaria, but I could not find any proof of that.
Northern stargazers are (or at least were) kept in the Save The Bay Exploration Center & Aquarium in Newport, Rhode Island. The only thing I could find about the specimen was a video
I also saw some stuff about them in the aquarium trade.

I am sure that White Crappie are kept somewhere in the US, they're a pretty common species in the wild.

What about Gray Silky-flycatcher (Ptiliogonys cinereus)?
I've never seen them offered for sale or in a zoo, but I've heard they are in the cage bird trade in small numbers; various reports of the species from California in particular are attributed to escaped birds.
Tokyo Sea Life Park has Houndfish
Half-and-Half Chromis are present in the aquarium trade
Surge Wrasse is also in the aquarium trade
Again, present in aquarium trade
Not outside South America at least, and probably none there, either.
Hoatzins were kept by the Bronx zoo in the 90's (were even bred as well), And London zoo also kept them In the 30's I believe. In South america are the main holders for the publicly viewing this species.
