Going out of chimps? There are lots of domestic animals they can get to go with the goats

 

[James Barber]

I can't see Chester going out of Chimps.

Correct me if I'm wrong but are these the first domestic animals in the zoo since the foot and mouth outbreak in 2001

Are you forgetting about the camels

 

[hari Jones]

Oh my god how could I forget I really can't tell the difference between a domestic and a wild bactrian camel

I know this was a while ago but does anyone know why coro and bonita the jaguars were moved to another collection because I always loved seeing them especially in the waterfall enclosure

They could always bring in some animatronic chimps . . .

IIRC they left to make space for Napo and Goshi to be brought in. The other two non-breeders, Pele and Sofia, stayed on until the former died and the latter was retired to another collection a few years later.

 

[hari Jones]

I think coro is still alive but bonita has most likely died now

Coro died in 2021, he lived at Amazona Zoo.

 

[hari Jones]

he was a stunning jaguar he will be missed

Does anyone know if the old bear pits , yellow mongoose , kangaroo and anteater enclosure will be demolished because last time I was there I had a peep through the fence and all the enclosures are still there

 

[bongorob]

They are due for demolition.

Whereabouts is that in the zoo? New member here!

 

[hari Jones]

Round the corner from the red pandas In a way

 

[hari Jones]

Random question has anyone actually seen the cotton top tamarins on the former capuchin Island because I've been so many times since then and I still haven't seen them and they will be on my list of animals to see next time I go

I keep meaning to ask myself, as I always pass it a couple of times on my visits. Is there a little hut they use round the corner, as the large hatches looked shut to me?

Hi how are the Hi-Way heard of Asian Elephants? Now that Indali is reaching sexual maturity is she separated from Aung Bo. Indali’s Maternal Grandma Sithtami and Mum Sundara were her age when they conceived their first Calf’s. How’s the EEHV vaccination trial going. This gives me hope that future EEHV victims will survive.
