Ouwehands Zoo Ouwehands Dierenpark, Rhenen

The keeper said that this is what the studbook recommended so it's not certain as of yet but I can confirm that they will definitely be getting bonobos, and that they'll be living on what is currently either the camel or llama island (haven't been in years so not sure which)

:D exciting!!

It is on the current Camel enclosure, so between the orang utans and the indoor playground.
 
Ok so Zootierliste lists the squirrel monkeys at Ouwehands as common squirrel monkeys, but in photos they look to me like black-capped squirrel monkeys. Could someone confirm which they are please? Thanks :)

Their website also lists common but if I'm correct they've recently acquired a whole new group (I believe from Emmen) so I'd say they're black-capped as well.
 
Does anyone know where the Pandasia exhibit will end up? I heard something about the pelican lake?

Yes, on the site of the former pelican lake, reindeer enclosure and sea-eagle avairy. So roughly between the restaurant, sea-lion theatre and entrance to the bear forest.
 
Ah ok, so there will be two restaurants right by each other (since there will be a Chinese place in the temple part of Pandasia)?

I guess so. Burgers' Zoo also has two restaurants really close to each other but that seems to work out fine because they serve different kinds of food and offer different sceneries while eating so I guess it won't be a problem in Ouwehands either.
 
Does anyone know whether the twin white lion cubs Inkosi and Ilumbo are still there? Or have they left the zoo?
 
So, if Pandasia is on schedule for its originally announced opening time, it should be open next month. If anyone has been recently, what's the progress like?
 
No, no date know and by some delay in the building of the new Panda-enclosure it will be even later as first planned.
