You welcome. But I also would like to know, which zoo has the european first breeding of that species. With some new holders, it seems, there is a little bit of hope for them in europe.

Work started for the building of the new Black rhino enclosure. The Bat-eared fox-enclosure and a turtle-pool were destroyed to enlarge the rhino-area from now 900 squar meter to 2000 squar meter when it is finished. This should be for the end of 2015.

I'm thinking that part of the current pathway will also be converted into the newly enlarged rhino area?
Any idea if the elephants will get a bigger area in time?
