Between March 17 and April 3 no less than 7 Blackbocks were born ! For about 20 years blackbocks were seen in alsmost every zoo, now-a-days mostly smaller zoos and hunting-ranches are keeping the species which has become quite rare in the wild.
Similar pattern in the UK. Formerly a staple species in many Zoos- now found only in a few, though here Safari Parks are keeping them now also.
