Hi @BearCat and @Rupert89 is there any word on a new Tigeress joining Dragan? I hope Dragon isn’t mourning the loss of his adoptive Sister to much. They were so close and knew each other from about 2 months old. Also I hear that Jasiri’s/the Wolf enclosure is currently a building site. Is it known what is being built. I hope it’s an enclosure for Asiatic Lion’s Specticled Bears,Amur Leopards or even Polar Bears.

I don't think there is any news on a tiger coming in. It is kind of known about what is going in the old wolf enclosure but nothing official has been released so I will not say just incase but I think they are announcing it in a month or so officially.

@Rupert89 where have the Wolf Brothers gone?
 
Those wolves are still there, I meant the other enclosure where there used to be wolves and where jasiri spent a fair bit of time

@Rupert89 do you mean the enclosure that has housed,Black Jaguars,Amur Tigers,Timber Wolves and finally Jasiri. I believe this enclosure was extended to contain an area where Jasiri could meet the Lionesses. Is Jasiri now living with Kimya full time. Finally is the area in between Jasiri’s former enclosure and the main Lion enclosure still there.

Jasiri is living with kimya full time and has been for a while now. I don't think any parts of enclosures have been removed. There is scaffolding around that area though.

@Rupert89 this is brilliant news. I’m glad that after all these years Jasiri and Kimya are living harmoniously together.
 
@Rupert89 have you been to Dartmoor Zoo recently? If you have are there any updates on a Mate arriving for Dragan (Amur Tiger). Furthermore are any other animals arriving or departing Dartmoor Zoo.
 
Zoo to welcome Amur leopard this year:

Dartmoor Zoo’s exciting new project – protecting Amur leopards

This year we will be welcoming our first Amur leopard from a zoo in Europe.

The Society’s ambition is to build a modern, state-of-the-art facility at Dartmoor Zoo to help one of the world’s most vulnerable big cat species thrive and breed.

The ‘Protecting Amur Leopards’ project will see the existing quarry enclosure transformed into new accommodation, including a new indoor space and off-show facilities.
