The black tree-kangaroo is my holy grail.
On the other hand, as a seventeen-year-old, I have already seen many rare species many here would like to see, including:
- Alagoas curassow (Belo Horizonte zoo);
- Alcatrazes tree frog (São Paulo zoo);
- Amazonian manatee (São Paulo aquarium);
- Black hawk eagle (São Paulo and Sorocaba zoos);
- Blonde capuchin monkey (São Paulo zoo);
- Crowned solitary eagle (São Paulo and Sorocaba zoos):
- Giant armadillo (many zoos);
- Harpy eagle (many zoos);
- Lear's macaw (Rio de Janeiro zoo);
- Golden lancehead (Instituto Butantan, São Paulo and Sorocaba zoos);
- Marsh deer (Itatiba, Belo Horizonte and Gramado zoos);
- Jabirou stork (Itatiba, Sorocaba and Gramado zoos);
- Ornate hawk-eagle (São Paulo zoo);
- Red uakari (Itatiba zoo);
- Short-tailed parrot (Itatiba zoo);
- Southern muriqui (São Paulo and Sorocaba zoos);
- Southern naked-tailed armadillo (Pomerode zoo);
- Tanimbar python (São Paulo zoo);
- Uta Hick's bearded saki (Rio de Janeiro and Sorocaba zoos);
- Yellow baboon (São Paulo zoo);
Futurely, I might become the sole ZooChatter to have seen an Eastern silky anteater (Cyclopes didactylus), as I will visit ZooParque Itatiba in mid-December.
