okay, hopefully they do get them, the zoo seems one of the best in europe and from the pictures i can't really see any bad exhibits from the pics, tho the chinese exhibit seems a bit bland. hopefully i'll visit in the near future

Could all that expense and Chinese theming of the 'Central Installation' be for anything other than Giant Pandas? I can't imagine so somehow. Also they are being deliberately coy about what is going in there too.

yes, i agree, why would you spend a whole load of money on a CHINESE themed exhibit, only not to include Giant Panda, When you could theme it as a Himilayan Exhibit which would be able to include all the animals currently there, and just be able to curve away from Giant Panda. Seems as if zoochatters are the only ones thinking about it

Is there any further news about the 'Chinese enclosure' that seems to have been built for Giant Pandas?

The male 'Asato' is the famous Jersey Gorilla 'Jambo's last offspring. He has been very successful as a breeder at Beauval. They have also had a good run of female babies born there, which evens up the balance to those places where a lot of males are born.
