Can anyone tell me if the Rare Species Conservation Centre still has their Pumas and has anyone any details about them?
Equally does anyone know if Amazona Zoo , Cromer, does now have a male & female pairing and where the male came from ?
Also does the Wildlife Heritage Foundation have one female Puma still ?
Finally , I heard that the Cat Survival Trust have four Pumas , two of which are cubs - can any zoo chatters supply any more details on that please?
Many thanks.
 
RSCC does currently still have there Pumas last I heard but they will be on the move before to long from what I have heard!
 
Not sure if it's still the case but when it first opened (2008) Amazona had 0:2 (sisters) from a collection in Austria. They were housed at Thrigby for a year prior to going to Amazona
 
Many thanks folks ! Zoogiraffe could you PM me mate regarding the ones at RSCC , if you know any more ? Cheers.
 
The RSCC do have two pumas, which they will be keeping as far as I am aware. The clouded leopard had moved to another collection some months ago so the pumas have access 24/7.

Thanks Al. Do you know if they are a male and female ?
 
Can anyone tell me where the female Puma "Tamar" is currently ?
I know she was born at Dartmoor Wildlife Park , she was then sold (illegally - which was secretly filmed under cover) to a private keeper , the RSPCA took possesion of her after a raid I believe and then she went to Santago.
It is thought she went on to the Wildlife Heritage Foundation at Smarden after Pete James died, but they say they have no record of her(?). Has she died , did she remain at Santago or has she gone elsewhere ? Any help anyone ?
 
the rscc animals are male and female and are unrelated! however I believe the female is on a temp. contraceptive at the mo
