Tierpark Hellabrunn Munich zoo news

and the stubfoot toads. Now the reason why I am not referring them as the Rio Pescado stubfoot toads is because the zoo says that they have Barbotin's stubfoot toads/ Atelopus barbotini . The photo of the stubfoot toad they don't look like a RP stubfoot either. I couldn't find the species on ZooTierListe so I assume the species is lumped with another one on ZTL.
Edit: I checked the ZTL holdings of Cayenne and Pebas stubfoot toads, two species the Barbotin's stubfoot toad was lumped with in the past, and Hellabrunn is not listed there either.
Sorry for the double post, but I just found out that the stubfoot toads are misidentified per ZTL and that they are actually Nassau Plateau stubfoot toads/ Atelopus hoogmoedi nassaui.
 
An unannounced addition to the zoo is pied tamarins listed on the zoo’s website under the primate and South American species lists.
The zoo has finally confirmed the addition of the pied tamarins. The zoo keeps an adult pair and a younger individual.

An interesting point of the news update is that the cotton-top tamarins are still in Hellabrunn. The zoo plans to display this species elsewhere in the zoo in the middle term.
