White-bearded Gnus (Connochaetes taurinus albojubatus) among the daisies. One of my favourite antelopes.

      They had them between 1951 and 1994. Just visible in the background is the old cat house.

      Because they are not an endangered species. Who knows, they may return in the super zoo African savannah project. I hope so, I quite like them.

      Would this be the current Vicuna & Rhea paddock then. I always assumed this was part of the Zebra/Oryx paddocks until Rob pointed the cat house out.
