July/August 2023 News Not Mentioned:
On July 27th, it was announced that the zoo transferred (1.1) lowland anoas named Teal'c and Oana to the Berlin Zoo in Berlin, Germany earlier in 2023.
Zoo Berlin on Instagram: "Anfang des Jahres sind zwei Flachland-Anoas aus dem Chester Zoo zu uns gezogen. Das Männchen heißt Teal’c und wird in wenigen Tagen 22 Jahre alt, das Weibchen trägt den Namen Oana und ist zehn Jahre jünger – und kleiner. Denn bei Anoas sind die Weibchen deutlich kleiner als die Männchen.
Anoas sind übrigens ohnehin nicht sonderlich groß. Sie sind die zierlichsten noch lebenden Wildrinder der Erde. Ihre Schulterhöhe misst weniger als einen Meter – und sie bringen maximal 300 Kilogramm auf die Waage.
At the beginning of the year, two lowland anoas moved to us from Chester Zoo. The male is called Teal'c and will be 22 years old in a few days, the female is called Oana and is ten years younger – and smaller. Because in anoas, the females are significantly smaller than the males.
Anoas are not particularly big anyway. They are the world's smallest species of wild cattle. They stand less than one metre at the shoulder and weigh a maximum of 300 kilograms.
