    Nope he came from Flamingo Land a few years back. He was quite elderly at the time of his arrival and he died a few years a go. He was replaced by a stallion called Julian and Longleat have just bought in a new male called Guiness from Ireland. I don't know what happend to Julian I assume he died or moved on.

    Sorry I only know about Guiness through Zoochat. It's funny you should be asking all about Longleat the week I am going. This is a link to a thread I started about Longleat if you want me to find out anything then please post it there and I will see what I can do.

    not sure if they are still there but they used to have three girls, katie, stephanie and Ingrid. Ingrid was quite elderly however and was loosing fur. More of a spotty zebra than a stripy one.
