Such a shame, last week I saw that the zoo had an old Amur leopard in the NA Population thread and now she is gone. Rest in peace. Just like Lucas the jaguar at Toronto Zoo, the day before he died, I asked questions about him and after 1 day, he passed. It is too sudden.
The zoo announced that their giraffe and kangaroo are now viewable outdoors. They were indoors for the winter. The two baby kangaroo have emerged from their mother's pouch. Heather and Holly's babies specifically. They already announced that before. Avec l'augmentation des températures, nos frileux mettent progressivement le nez DEHORS!

Today the zoo announced that their new mandrill and colobus monkey exhibit is almost done. They finished the rock structure and the cascade. The final things are the plants and the net on top of the exhibit. It will be fully opened in Summer 2024. The animal will be there in the end of spring. The two species will not be together at the same time. They will have a turn for each species. The exhibit looks beautiful, it is like the one for the Japanese macaque. The exhibit is better than the indoor exhibit which is very small. Zoo de Granby
