January - Best New Species/Exhibits in UK Zoos

[britishzoofan]

This poll is an idea I've thought of to decide amongst zoo chatters what they believe to be the best new species/exhibits in UK zoos. I will run this competition every month with the possibility of an end of year contest for all the monthly winners. I will create a similar thread for births as well. In addition I am hoping to run the competition for Australasia, North America and Europe excluding the UK too.

In terms of the rationale behind your votes just pick whichever piece of news excited/interested/impressed you the most. If there are any glaring omissions please let me know.

Whilst they aren't a new species as the animals have moved within the site, I would have voted the new Takin exhibit at Paignton Zoo.

I believe that occurred in February. So it will be included in the February poll.

Ah yes, my bad... I hadn't noticed the "January" aspect of this
