I can provide send you the info:
Ayo (b. 2012 MakulaxDalila) was born in Gaiazoo, Kerkrade - where he resided prior to his transfer here -.

I also checked for all the other bachelors:
Yeba ex Givskud (b. 2016 SamsonxChuma)
Wazungu ex Cambron-Casteau (Pairi Daizi) (b. 2002 RoututuxSonja Muenchen in Hellabrunn)
Tambo ex Krefeld (b. 2013 KidogoxMuna)

Yeba was born in 2012! All the other dates are correct.

Looking good. I'm glad they did it there because there is already a sort of treetop playground thing there, so it could be linked with it.

Would be interested to see how the outdoors will look. Hopefully as good as the Lemur Islands at Thoiry .
The indoor doesn't look amazing but it is for two gorillas instead of a whole troop...

Two others are coming in the next weeks...
but I read that it was the smaller of the two indoors we saw.

Phew... Because that wasn't how I'd imagined a new indoor exhibit for 4 gorillas.

Nearly 50 births in Thoiry this year include : three american black bears, one andean bear, two snow leopards, three chinese leopards, two pygmy marmosets, two przewalski's horses, ring-tailed lemurs, lions...

Lionceaux, oursons, panthères... Baby boom au zoo de Thoiry !

After the Wisent reintroduction in Azerbaijan back in 2019, the zoo has received news that 3 calves were born to the reintroduced herd and they are thriving in their new habitat! Good news for the species and future reintroductions

I don't know if it was announced but Thoiry was able to reopen the safari part on Wednesday December 16th. Only the car part of course.

And for another time in France : Thoiry will open lodges in the north-american area of its safari.
So people can sleep above the american black bears, artic wolves and bisons.
From 150 euros per person !
