Of "insular raccoons", only Cozumel raccoon is real species, others are introduced common raccoons. None in Europe AFAIK.

Thick-billed raven - maybe Veldhoven, Holland?

Cotswold Wildlife Park used to have 2 male New Caledonian Crows on show but these have now been taken off-show or returned to Oxford not quite sure which.

@ Sun Wukong:
F.e. just one case: Speothos venaticus ... there are many more locations which have no indications on this site ...
Certainly I know that is impossible to provide current datas in the case of sites which works huge quantity of informations like this ...

That's why I asked You (and others) to participate...
Go to
ZootierlisteHomepage
Fill in the free space for "Nickname", "Email" and "Passwort"(=password) and click "Registrieren".
Then go to "Einloggen", write down Your nickname and in the second free field Your password. Once You're in, click "Home", "Schwarzes Brett" and share Your wisdom. But make sure that the husbandry You describe still exists; otherwise, write "Ehemalige Haltung". You can also edit and add the individual species accounts by yourself. And presto! one less reason to nag about missing Bush Dogs...
@Jurek7: That's still a debated field; some, like Helgen & Wilson, state that the Cozumel or the Guadeloupe Raccon ar just subspecies or even conspecific with the Common raccoon. Others still consider them as seperate species; further investigation is recommendable. Procyon insularis si still a valid species. Still, this doesn't answer my question... Thanks for the hint reg. Holland.
@zoogiraffe: Thanks

I made an account, and the site now knows about Lotherton and Pauxi Unicornis!

@Ituri: Thanks for the confirmation. Now I'm really surprised that I did not notice them...

Which species of bower-birds have You seen so far in zoos/private collections?

There is one species I've seen at San Diego. Quite a dull brown species.

That's the only species of bower-bird I have seen so far in a zoo. Too bad...

San diego keeps Royal antelopes, but I believe they're being phased out..
