None of these are in the US at least, and if they're not on ATL I'd say there's no way they're in the UK, either.

Of these only the pigeon is bred outside Madagascar. It is kept by Walsrode and Plzen and is available in the private trade in very low numbers as well. There might be some in private hands in the UK but not to say for certain.
 
Are there Mexican Burrowing Toads kept in captivity?
Honduran White Bat is not kept in captivity right? Because of the special diet?

The blue pigeon is currently on display at Singapore Bird Paradise, in the Winged Sanctuary area.

Does any zoo house Oriental Crested Ibis (Nipponia nippon)? I searched ZooChat and found that Beijing Zoo housed them in 2013, but do they still? I also saw mentions of reintroduced populations?

Yes, there are reintroduced populations in Sado Island in Japan, with some individuals crossing over to mainland Honshu. Currently Ishikawa Zoo holds the Ibis, but there are other conservation and breeding centers in Japan such as the crested ibis decentralized breeding center in Izumo, crested ibis decentralized breeding center in Nagaoka, and Sado Japanese Crested Ibis Conservation Center Station for Crested Ibis to return to the wild Toki Fureai Plaza. Tama zoo in Tokyo holds the ibis bts, however I heard that there is a chance that they will exhibit them in the near future.

Did the earthquake in January had any effect on the population and/or those facilities?
