Isis I wounder how up 2 date the Isis list is ?. Will see what i can find out from my contacts at Marwell.
I know Blackpool Zoo have got 1.2 now as a male arrived recently. This news was on their Facebook page, I think.
Pretty sure Marwell still have no male. It would be interesting to know if there is one in the pipeline.
UK Mountain Zebra population Blackpool 0.2.0 linton 1.2.0 Marwell 0.3.0 Paignton 1.2.0, this is the imformation i have recived from Marwell,which i hope is correct!
wouldn't it be good for marwell to get a male or give a female to one of the males since means more foals??
i know but they could swap around the females or the males to give 2 large herds 1.5 and 1.4, while let the other two collections get a new hoofstock?
Its probably best to keep them in the smaller groups to keep them far apart if it was only 2 groups then the chance of them all being related even further is a high possibility. This way it keeps them in more collections and kept further apart genetically.
