Some news from the Dutch zoo magazine "De Harpij":

- From Antwerp Zoo and Hannover Zoo, 16 Senegal doves arrived. They are now flying freely in Rimbula.
- From the AAP foundation 1.2 raccoons came to Wildlands. These have been merged with the present group.
- The female of the Siberian red squirrels died.
- The last harbour seal moved to Ouwehands Dierenpark. This means this species is out of the collection.
