Mogo family group of siamangs are from Edinborough. Cats and primates are 'easier' to import because they don't have the same quarantine restricyions as ungulates.

I have a book about London Zoo and there is a story in it about a White Elephant which arrived on 'tour' to the Zoo from America I think. Its mahut travelled with it and was offered a job by the zoo.

The story continues with the mahut murdering one of the other elephant keepers and it was later discovered that the white elephant had died at around the same time in India...

I don't know whether this is true or not however

Your probably already aware of this but when ZooPro mentioned in another thread that Mogo had 16 white lions, it got me thinking. . . the latest arrivals, four more this year. what are they going to do with all of those lions???
