Question Hello from Paignton Zoo
Old 21-09-2008

Wow! great to meet other zoo 'crack pots' like myself, i can't believe i have not found this site before! So nice to know there are other people out there who have nothing better to do with their time than discuss all the in's & out's of zoo life! I have just returned from daily pilgrimage to the zoo and pestered every keeper i came across to glean information about the animals....
1. 'Kirana' the juvenile tiger female (age 2 1/4) is going to another zoo soon
2. i met a lady in the ape house who said they may be getting female gorillas soon and start breeding!
Has anyone else heard anything about these rumours?

Thanks.

No, I asked another keeper today and I got the feeling they were being deliberatly vague! I was hoping someone on here might know.
