SMR the were no CDs last year, I was going to ask why but I never got round to it. I just looked for the 2016 animal inventories but they are not up yet.

 

[SMR]

So they just make the 28 days notice, unlike last year.

They haven't, it's only 17 days away, which doesn't meet the usual minimum guidelines of three-four weeks.

I know I was being sarcastic

One thing that is annoying about Chester,too many species are off show which is both a good and bad thing.

Good for conservarion purposes but the narrow-striped mongooses are offshow and they aren't even endangered!

The IUCN would differ with you on that point I am afraid!

In any case, that species falls under the classification of "nowhere to put them onshow" at present much as the Aye-Aye were for a long time. Patience is a virtue

I guess that someone needs to update zootierliste then

There are only two pre determined options but no one here is going to like the choices

 

[bongorob]

Naming a turtle? whatever next. Do they want someone to name the ants?

I think they would name only the queen.

Nope! The whole jaguar exhibit!

Birds are now working it's just the plants

 

[Water Dragon]

I have been through the stocklists and a few that I put onto my favourite species list are not on there including: Caribbean Hermit crabs, arapaima, monarch butterfly, and sterlet.

You do have quite the list to put together then.

 

[AdrianW1963]

Is there anywhere I could get earlier reports then the ones currently on the web page as I am really interested in the bird species they have kept at the collection over the years.

The zoo purchased another 110 acres of farm land at the beginning of the year, the total area of land owned now must be huge.
