      Fantastic to see another UK collection getting this species (and, on selfish note, one much closer to me!).

      My favourite animal species? I'd say so.

      They are very nice, unfortunatly no easier for me than Marwell is. Still, wasn't expecting I'd see these this year so it was definately a bonus, just thought I'd sneak a picture of them in here to see what reaction they got :p

      I prefer Roan, they are bigger.

      A challenge for our UK regulars, with the arrival of sable antelope at Woburn, there has been a veritable explosion in the past few years of antelopes species held in the UK's 5 safari parks.
      Therefore, can you name the species that CANNOT be seen in our safari parks?

      Greater kudu
      Addra gazelle
      Dorcas gazelle
      Arabian oryx
      Blue duiker
      Defassa waterbuck

      Over to you.

      Think you have it pretty spot on Kiang,although I suspect we may be missing atleast one!

      Black Wildebeeste
      Blesbok
      Nile Lechwe
      Sitatunga

      Blesbok and sitatunga at Knowsley
      and a mystery new species just arrived in the country????????
    • zoogiraffe
      There are always new species coming into the country so you never know what might turn up,given that a species new Europe has turned up last month,which hasn't been annouced yet by the recieving collection!!
