Chester Animals Onshow/Signed as of 16/17th August 2016

So the Amazon Tree Boas are signed now? Is that a recent development?

No they aren't, we were only told that they are in the vivarium next door to the poison dart frogs and the serrated casquehead iguanas in Tropical Realm :/
 
Or Avicrocodilia :p as crocodiles seems that are closest related reptiles to birds than the rest divisions of reptiles (lizards&snakes, chelonians, tuatara) are to birds.

The term usually applied to the group containing birds and crocs is Archosauria. ;)
 
Not wishing to rain on your parade but why are you even bothering posting this when the zoo publish an annual stock list? I understand some people like to keep a list of all of the species that they have ever seen for themselves (actually I don't understand it but each to their own - I have my own quirks to deal with) but this is basically an incomplete stocklist?

One handy difference is it highlights what is currently on show. I know in any zoological collection that can change as often as this British summer's weather, but it's a handy start for anybody wanting to quickly search what they can see at a zoo. Whenever I visit a new collection I check zootierliste as I'm sure most people on here do, but for bigger collections this can be a nightmare having to go on each species to see if it should in theory be in show of not :)
 
Next to the bushdogs in the aviary which has held red-billed blue magpie for some time.
