      Lucifer, Lucy, Sanda and Chiku were sharing the platform when I visited today. Chiku was grooming Sanda; and then antagonised Lucy, who moved away from her.

      Sanda came into season last month for the first time since Chiku was born in February 2016. The staff are hoping she will fall pregnant soon as at 34 years, she is past the prime breeding age.

      Apparently Chiku blocks Luka’s attempts to mate with her mother; just like Sule used to do with his mother, Sacha, at Taronga Zoo. Her white baby tuft allows her to get away with a lot at the moment.

      1.0 Lucifer (born 16/06/1988 at Auckland Zoo)
      1.0 Luka (born 28/02/1993 at Auckland Zoo)

      0.1 Sally (born 19/10/1970 at Auckland Zoo)
      0.1 Lucy (born 24/11/1975 at Taronga Zoo)
      0.1 Sanda (born 10/04/1985 at Adelaide Zoo)
      0.1 Chiku (born 15/02/2016 at Hamilton Zoo)
