as I believe there are only two females in the UK - the one at Cotswold and another at Edinburgh - but quite a few males at both .

Unless there is a fresh import, their future seems to depend on the single female at each place. Cotswold have the pair(+new baby) and two other males seperately. I think one of these 'pairs' comprises the last survivors of the Twycross group.
 
didn't some of the langurs come from belfast??? i think i read it here on zoochat somewhere, or at least some langurs joined the langurs at cotswolds???

All the Languars came from Belfast apart from the ones at Edinburgh which came from Perth.

Do CWP have any plans on mixing the giraffe with zebra, rhino etc?

Very unlikely. The current rhino/zebra and future giraffe paddocks are separated by a footpath, a railway and a leopard enclosure, and they've just done up the Rhino House. It's possible they could run something in with the giraffes but I've not heard any suggestion that they will at all.

There was a pair that came to Edinburgh from Perth of which one of the animals, the female i think died.
The rest of the animals in the Edinburgh group were imported from Singapore.
3 years ago.

Then maybe the female which has had this new baby isn't that one, as the article says they are 'first time' parents.

If anyone knows exactly the origins of the two 'pairs' (3 males, 1 female) at Cotswold Wildlife Park, I'd be interested to hear.:)
 
The female langur at Edinburgh gave birth overnight and the infant is doing well. Unsexed as yet but the last three have all been male ......
 
I was looking through zootierliste and found that brazilian procupine were listed with cotswold wildlife park, there doesn't seem to be a mention of prorcupine on their usually accurate cotswold website. Is this a mistake of zootierliste as I hadn't heard about these at cotswolds?

Dom told us he had seen that in the Bat House on a recent visit. Though I've got to admit the site isn't as on the dot as it used to be; there's been no mention of the Warty Pigs whatsoever for example.

Don't know if someone has seen this since you posted but they're definitely on there:

Listed as 'Negros Warty Pig', don't know if that threw you? (I quite often get caught out by the common names on Zootierliste)
 
Ah! With you.

They do seem to have slipped the net there.
