I remember the northern white rhinoceros at London Zoo. I didn't realise how rare it was at the time.
Have they actually had any success what so ever at breeding them?

I think this may just be for species rare in zoos currently in captivity. Has anyone mentioned the Raccoon Dog in U.S. zoos? They're pretty rare with only three places holding them.:
I know Atlanta does: http://www.zoochat.com/22/news-thread-2-a-277831/Ohh what 3 places have them? I believe the only Raccoon Dog's I've ever seen were at Omaha's Henry Doorly Zoo in 2006. And I don't think they have them anymore.
London Zoo also has Leadbeater's Possums, if I am not mistaken.

Edinburgh have a few-
Pygmy slow loris, hamlyn monkeys, douroucoulis, Kuhl's hog deer, Asian golden cat, aardwolf, single wattles cassawory, and the blue eyed black lemurs.
The Hamlyn's monkey have recently left the collection and the single wattled cassowaries haven't been in the collection for at least 10 years.
Trotters world of animals held Pichi armadillos for a brief spell, are they rare?
Very - they are currently entirely absent from Europe.
Can the species be found in American zoos?

I would venture to say Pichi are not currently in any American zoos. Private collections who knows...Does anyone know what South American Zoos have them? I'm sure there's gotta be some?
After consulting the entire south America gallery, no picture directly says Pichi armadillo. I have asked four zoos that have pictures of armadillo exhibits, with no specified species. I am awaiting results.

I keep seeing an animal at certain zoos that is so rare it doesn't even exist - Red Wolf
Wow way to go epickoalaI'm sure there are some zoos in South America that hold the species that aren't really known by us hear on ZooChat. How'd you ask the zoos? Email?
