Parc Animalier d'Auvergne on Instagram: "
️ Samedi dernier, deux mâles guépards du Soudan sont arrivés au Parc Animalier d'Auvergne. Ils étaient auparavant hébergés au @fotawildlife en Irlande et formeront au Parc avec une femelle (arrivée prévue début avril) un groupe reproducteur dans le cadre du programme de reproduction européen de l'espèce (EEP). 
Dans la nature, les guépards du Soudan sont classés en Danger Critique sur la Liste Rouge de l'IUCN. Il est donc crucial de les protéger ! Avec @play_for_nature, nous soutiendrons cette année grâce à votre venue au Parc @ccfcheetah qui les protège dans leur milieu naturel. Les guépards ne sont pour le moment pas visibles mais ils le seront pour les vacances de Pâques ! . Le Parc est ouvert ce week-end de 10h30 à 17h ! #OneTeamforBiodiversity"On August 18th, it was announced that the zoo transferred a (0.1) northern cheetah named Darcy to the Yorkshire Wildlife Park in South Yorkshire, United Kingdom.

Nice and memorable birth.

Sad to see Mr Mckeown retire but it seems like Ms Tennant will be able to expand the park with her involvement in the projects in Dublin zoo.
Was the photograp really of an agile gibbon (I wonder)?
It is, even though the brow doesn’t look white, it’s definitely still the agile.
5 ring-tailed lemurs have been born to mothers Dolly/DC (March 22nd), Aqua (twins on March 24th), Brida (March 25th) and Quinta (April 9). Father of all five is Merlot. The troop now numbers fourteen individuals.

I actually saw at least two of the babies when I visited last month (I mentioned visiting recently in the future plans thread).

12 Eurasian Curlews have hatched so far at Fota from a potential clutch of 31 eggs collected from the wild. The chicks are being raised and will be released soon once flighted to improve morality rates in the wild.
Great wetland bird recovery support. They should do this elsewhere too. All European wetland and wading birds remain in decline in my home country thanks to overzealous and industrial farming practices that are economically non-viable and environmentally absolutely unsustainable. It is a scandal at the European level, honestly (and this all due to years of Govt. sabotage, farming community subterfuge and income support no employee ever gets out of Govt. at any given time not in work nor when on UB40!
The baby colobus monkey has been named Cillian, while the baby agile gibbon has been named Murphy. I'm sure many of you at least will get the reference.
