Two male dholes left the zoo to go to Zoo Granby, according to their Facebook. They say they are brothers. I do not know what their names are but they are 2 males. It is in french so most of you guys might understand video. It is said in the beginning video that they come from France and near the end of the video saying they are brothers. Les dholes sont arrivés au Zoo de Granby! | ✨ ILS SONT ARRIVÉS!!! ✨ On les attendait avec impatience, et ils sont enfin parmi nous!

You make it sound like it was the only dholes (probably lost in translation).
It really is 2 young dholes from the pack. The breeding group remains intact.

I am just so glad that EAZA keeps on the breeding programme EEP. Incidentally, RZ de la Haute-Touch is species coördinator. Probably, a good intervention to bring out the female dholes out of San Diego and up to Granby. Added benefit is that Canadian zoos can import/export the species in and out.

I assume this may be a Transatlantic partnership to rescue the North American part of the population with European founder roots (thanks @TZFan). The dholes from SD-Zoo carried Howletts (sire) and Twycross (2 females) founder base.

Great news announced in a press release. The zoo has projects which will take shape late 2022/early 2023 :
- a group of guinea baboons from Paris will arrive. The island has already been done and the money was just missing for the building. From what I heard the group will be for bachelors. A great news as Paris has 3 groups for just one enclosure !

Some year after :rolleyes: : at the end of may the park welcome a bachelor group of 11 western baboons from Paris Zoological Park. The new group is housed on a 3.000 square meters new island near the large pond.
The park still has a breeding pair on another island.
