      I can remember when thay had a larger group of about 6 or 7 and this was one of the most entertaining exhibits at the zoo.

      Maybe they are another species on the phase out list ;)

      I don't think they are, in the last two years melbourne have bred two, monarto has a breeding group of 7 which one was born just over a year ago and i think there are some at the national zoo in canberra.

      Good to hear :D

      But as you would know, with Australian zoos and plans, things can change very quickly.
    • Jabiru96
      Hopefully not. They are a wonderful species and I hope that we can keep them in the next 5-10 years

      I think they shouldn't anyway soon as 4 were imported by monarto and adelaide a couple of years ago.
