Also from the Tasmanian subspecies? Which wouldn't be bad as the pair in Budapest is the only pair in Europe that actually breeds. And did any other marsupials arrive with the wombats?
The new female Snow leopard is Laïla and will be paired with the male Jeti which is already living at Pairi Daiza.
Last Monday a Giraffe was born at Pairi Daiza ( article in Dutch, with video ) : Pairi Daiza verwelkomt baby giraffe | Video | De Morgen
The birth at Pairi Daiza apparently came earlier than expected and went very quickly. The baby is doing well (luckily) and also drinking/being cared for well. If the weather allows, she is set to go outside soon. Voor eerste keer olifant geboren in Pairi Daiza - HLN.be Pairi Daiza did decide to postpone planned festivisties for the elephant birth after the death of 'Baby Q' at Planckendael.
Visited Pairi Daiza last week. Giant Pandas, Snow Leopards, Golden Takin, Giant Otter, Binturong, Wombat, Common Hippo, Brindled Gnu, Spotted Hyena, White Rhino, Sable Antelope, Ankole Cattle & Cape Buffalo. They do have Tigre Blancs, but they could not be viewed satisfactorily. Take binoculars!
Elephant update: The new calf has now been named, Nang Faa (Meaning Angel in Thai) Another calf is also on the way - female, Aye Chan May is confirmed pregnant and due August 2016. Father is Po-Chin
The shoebill storks of Zoo Zürich, Switzerland, and Zoo Wuppertal, Germany, have been moved to Pairi Daiza, Belgium, to make up new breeding pairs!
