Thanks

Thanks SWA for your giraffe information.

I will update my records and post an updated list on this thread in the next few days.

I am just finalising the list of Persian Leopards at Marwell and I will post these later this evening.
 
I quote from the first edition of Marwell Zoo News regarding the original leopards - ' Two young pairs of leopards were purchased early in 1970 . Their true identity is obscure , as although both pairs were obtained from East German zoos , their origin is not known and their sub-species is in question . They probably represent the result of cross-breeding different sub-species .'

Both pairs bred at Marwell . I think that a cub was hand-reared from one pair and paired with a black leopard which came into the collection . This pair then replaced one of the original pairs . The Persian leopards then replaced these .

Here is the list of Persian Leopards which I have found in the Stud Book information which was supplied by SWA.

The first two I only have the stud book numbers for.

If anyone has any more information on these or any of the other leopards please feel free to post it here.

Correction for Pedro giraffe at Marwell

Here is a revised entry for Pedro. The arrived from location was incorect.

NAME Pedro
DATE OF BIRTH ?

MOTHER ?

LEFT MARWELL Died at Marwell
DATE DIED July 1982
NOTES Pedro was the replacement for Victor.

Just to let anyone know who is intrested I will be posting an extensive list of cheetah's at Marwell on this thread in the next few days.
 
List of Cheetah's at Marwell

Here is the list of cheetah’s which are or have been at Marwell since opening.

This includes the 8 cubs who were born at Marwell on the 10 May 1999 to Pretoria (M) and Joolz (F).

I don’t know if anyone reading this is able to explain why there were two cheetah’s named Cooper and two named Cassius in this litter.

There are also two cheetah’s named Charli as well.

The only link I have found is that they all went to Banham Zoo, Norfolk and Kessingland, Suffolk Wildlife Park. This however does not explain why they have the same name as I am fairly sure they are not the same animal.

Where names are not known or the cheetah was never named I have shown the studbook number. If you do know any missing names please add it to this thread.

As with the previous lists I have posted on this thread please let me know if you can add any more information to it. Or if you find something wrong.
 
Where to find the latest list of animals

Over the last few weeks with the help of fellow zoo chat members I have put together a list of some of the animals at Marwell over the years.

To make it easier to find the latest updated list here are the thread numbers to go to:

GIRAFFE Thread 50 (An additional update for Pedro only can be found on thread 51)

AMUR LEOPARD Thread 40 (To add, the sex of Milena is female)

PERSIAN LEOPARD Thread 45

AFRICAN LEOPARD Thread 46

CHEETAH Thread 52

If anyone is still able to fill in any of the blank information please feel free to post it here.

I am particularly keen to here from anyone who may be able to answer the question why were there two cheetah’s called Cooper, Cassius and Charli. Each pair was in the same litter. See the cheetah thread (no 52) for full details.

I will add another animal which can be found at Marwell in the next few days.
 
Amur tigers at Marwell

I have started to put together a list of Amur tigers who have been at Marwell over the years.

At the moment there are a lot of gaps in the information that I have.

If you are able to provide some of the missing information please feel free to add it to this thread.

I know that Hattie who lived some 20 years at Marwell was mother to 13 male cubs and 11 female cubs. Does anyone have any information on these cubs please.

I have access to a copy of the "International Tiger Stud Book"
I will be happy to provide info on any of the tigers, however, regarding the Amurs....it will take me some time because theres been over 5000 Amurs registered through the years.
 
Re Amur

Hi Amur,

Thanks for your offer of help this information would be most useful.

I have tried to find a copy of the Amur Tiger international studbook online but could not find a copy.

Hi Kwame,

The "International Tiger Stud Book" is not available on the internet.
All zoos that keep tigers are sent a copy every year from the stud book keeper.
Every five years....zoos are sent the "general register" which includes every tiger from the very first to be registered, too the latest to be registered.
The four years in-between....zoos are sent "supplements" which lists the latest...births, deaths, transfers, for that year.
The latest "general register" was in the year 2005, and the next will be 2010.
Zoos will receive the "2010 general register" at the beginning of 2011.
I'm on holiday at the moment, but when i return to work i will bring home the "2005 general register" and the "supplements" since then, and i will post the info your looking for.
Regarding the Amur tiger....the "2005 general register stud book" lists well over 5000 Amur tigers.
The number of Amur tiger wild-caught "Founders" is 112 (they had descendents).
The number of Amur tigers that was taken from the wild is 139.
All of the above are listed in the stud book.
I will be happy to look for you those that was held at Marwell.
But like i said....well over 5000 Amur tigers have been registered, therefore, its going to take me a while.
Regarding "Marwell`s tigers" i will post...their stud numbers, names, mother and father stud numbers and names, transfers, birth/death dates.

best wishes

Because of this there has been quite a lot of debate on here about the purity of various zoo tigers. One recurrent question is whether there are still any pure-bred Indian tigers in zoos anywhere outside of India, where they are, and which was the last zoo to have them in the UK (and when).

Can you trace this for us and post accordingly? I appreciate this information dosn't relate to Marwell tigers so perhaps a new thread in due course would be good.

Hi Pertinax,

I can understand outsiders having some doubts, however, for those of us that have access to the stud book the picture is much clearer.
A hybrid situation arose at the beginning of 2008 (we received a letter from the EEP coordinator) regarding one of the "Founders" named Roman with stud number 3260.
When Roman was a cub it was first thought he was wild-caught and he went to a circus, but because of some doubts regarding his origin it was decided to do a DNA test.
The test results said Roman was pure bred Amur, therefore, he was registered in the stud book.
Roman died in 2003 but samples left over from him (in liquid nitrogen) was DNA tested again (late 2007) but this time Sumatran alleles was found.
Roman has 30+ living descendants, with 17 EAZA zoos affected (3 in the UK....Linton, Colchester, Longleat).
All Roman`s descendants have now been removed from the "Breeding Pool" by the coordinator, but will remain as exhibits.
Regarding Roman and the stud book....Roman and all his living/dead descendants have now been "Tagged as Hybrids" and listed separately from the others (to keep an eye on them).
All zoos affected have been told not to breed their hybrids, but if any cubs are born they will not be given a stud number.

Regarding Bengal`s....the last time i looked all "stud book Bengals" are held in India (i will check again).
For those so-called Bengals in other countries, they cannot be called pure because they are not stud book registered, only a DNA test can decide that.
Only Bengals registered in the stud book can be called pure because they all can be traced back without interruption up to the wild-caught Founder with known catching area.

best wishes

Thanks Amur

Hi Amur,

Thanks for your explanation regarding how the Amur Tiger stud book is put together.

I look forward to reading your thread on the Amur Tigers at Marwell when you get chance to post it.

I very much appreciate your help and know that it takes time to put these lists together. I speak from experience after putting the cheetah list together last weekend.
