The pair of Tapirs came from the same private collection the zebra did where they were known as Patrick and Patricia. He was born at Twycross in 1997. She was born at Southport in 2000. They arrived at Noah's Ark on Sunday 20th of this month.
The female is interesting as although 7 years old, still has spots and striping on her legs. She was the only female ever housed at Blackbrook (in effect she was the only Tapir to be kept at Blackbrook). |

No. Nothing came of it unfortunately though they were seen mating on several occasions (and he has fatherd in the past). Its a shame they've gone after such a short time together in thir place of introduction.

No idea I'm afraid. Maybe to make her more personal to the staff.
The magnificent male Chapman's Zebra that went to Noah's Ark (perhaps the best looking one I've ever seen) has had his rather grand and apt name "Masai" changed to the ridiculous and demeaning (sorry to sound anthropomorphic - just my sersonal distast for labelling physically outstanding specimens with depreciating appellations) "Zebedee". Criminal. |
