I'll be back next week, with tons of impressions, photos and of course, guidebooks.
Hope you can get some information on the new Gondwanaland exhibit at Leipzig, the species mentioned on here regarding this exhibit sound amazing

I just returned from my Trip to berlin,Leipzig,Halle,Rostocka nd Schwerin. Yesterday I've visited Leipzig and I've seen the gigantig construction area of Gondwanaland. Nobody knowa sat this time, which Species will move in. Unfortunately there are no plans to import Zebraduikers and Sumatran rhinos are not realistic. Nobody at the Zoo is beliving in sumatran rhinos.I've ssen the pangolin, geat animal. The keeper sid, best time to see it active is between 1 pm and 6 pm. Shortly before 11 am, they turn on the light in the exhibit for a couple of minutes, so thats the best time to make pictures.

Hello to Daniel, Dale and zebraduiker.

Well its day 2 for me here and it really is a very impressive place!

I never thought there would be a space. Where so many people with such specialised passions would gather.

What a great collection of zoo guides zebraduiker. I also have a collection although no where near as large as your collection.

Looking forward to reading and learning more.

Welcome Zooman. I'm new here also, and what I like is , that this forum is very international, its fascinating to communicate with so many zoofans from around the world and exchange informations fromt he zoos. I hope, I can come to australia in the next years, to see all your rare animals, you know, in european zoos just a few australian mammals left in the collections and its not easy to get them from australia, and my only chance to see platypus is to come to australia. Okay, my next trip will go again to the States, 2010 japan and maybe 2011 australia.....

I think, its easier to get a good and big collection of zooguides here in europe than in australia, because we have more zoos and aquariums and most of them have a guidebook. Of course I've got a lot of guidebooks via ebay and we have an annual zooguidecollector meeting, always ins eptember. The next will be in Breslau,Poalnd.I've got know a new zooguidebook of the Sydney Wildlife World. Have you ever been to this indoor zoo ? They have cassowaries in an indoor exhbit behind glass....

Hi Zebradukier,

I have not been to Sydney Wildlife World. I hear that it is allot of finacial trouble!

I do take it fro granted being able to see our Australian fauna so easily.

Look forward to sharing my experiances with you.

Stuart
