It's great list. Could somebody make a list of all manatees in Europe with their names?
 
Odense Zoo recently received 6-year-old manatee male Canouan from ZooParc de Beauval. He is the new breeding male at Odense, where he now lives with females Femmer and Henriette.

A manatee was born at ZooParc de Beauval on 16 September. It is a female, her mother is Femore. Beauval now has 15 manatees, eight males and seven females.

A manatee was born at Zoo Wroclaw on 26 September. It is a male, its mother is Abel. Abel did not take care of the calf, so keepers bottle feed him three times a day. The group in Wroclaw now consists of six animals.

This was the status of Antilles manatee in Europe end December 2016. Arnhem has recently restarted breeding and both Beauval and Odense maintain large groups. Anyone have any information on the current situation in the program?

ZooParc de Beauval: 8.8
Zoo Duisburg: 2.0
Tiergarten Nürnberg: 2.2

Zoo Wroclaw: 4.2
Faunia Madrid: 1.1

Births this year: 2.3 (1.2 in Beauval, 0.1 in Burgers and 1.0 in Wroclaw)
 
Does anyone have a current list of the manatees in Beauval with names? If I am correct, there should be 15, right?
 
Manatee female Gaffa recently moved from Randers Regnskov to Odense Zoo. Reason is that she has been living in Randers for about 20 years, but never had a young. Therefore, the coordinator of the management programme decided that she should move to Odense, where she will hopefully be able to have young.
