Sydney zoo is hard pressed holding asian elephants. They would not have the space for African elephants. Australia zoo would have been a better...
I believe there is a lot of land next to Sydney zoo not sure if they could expand into that. Forget Australia zoo they appear to have no expansion...
Correct, with elephants going to be held at all three open range facilities (Monarto, Werribee and Dubbo) and also Australia Zoo too (who have a...
Yeah I was going to say for 8 elephants the current melbourne exhibit is rather small. So that'll make (once Monarto's herd is established) four...
Sydney Zoo could have accommodated two bachelor African bulls with the space they have. It depends how much room they wanted to dedicate to...
