San Diego Zoo Safari Park San Diego Zoo Safari Park Complete Species List

I just found this site from 2015 stating the Asian Savana also has 20 dholes which is impressive. It is old so that why I'm not totally sure about them still being there but I doubt they would get rid of such a large population that's endangered in such a small amount of time.
Here is the sit for reference.
Dhole Explores New Habitat at San Diego Zoo Safari Park

In 2016 they had 29, according to their site. Indeed, the largest number in North America. By all appearances they still have them, the number could be higher now even.

4 were sent to Miami and 3 to Bronx (might have flipped those numbers) since then. I am not sure if they have bred more since then though, although I know this is a focal species for the safari park.
 
I figured some had probably gone elsewhere. I'd assume they're still doing well, unfortunately they're off exhibit so we have a harder time keeping track of them. Given they have been one of the few successful breeders in North America I'd assume they'd attempt breeding dhole as long as they have space.
