DWA is a weird one for shunting stuff around like they do. They still keep them at least, somewhere!
ZTL for the US is still rather lacking in accuracy. As of late last year USDA reported 15 Red-backed Bearded Sakis at DWA, so I'd presume at least...
Not really, if the various rumors are true. But as they're closed its not really here nor there now.
A note to this - keep in mind that sometimes focused reports are done for a certain species or section of a facility, and so sometimes the most...
It could work, but you're playing with fire. Hippos and baboons are bold both and pushy species that may come into conflict. The biggest potential...
This is true - however, unless there's something I'm not aware of, the actual dates each photo was taken are not provided on PhotoArk. I suspect...
ZTL will never be fully accurate as long as anyone who makes an account can edit. One of the biggest ongoing frustrations for the knowledgable...
Had, the species left a couple years ago now. Prospects within the AZA aren't promising for this species nowadays sadly.
It could be, potentially. I still don’t really see them as an ideal candidate, but it could work. I've seen Kinkajous exhibited in a standard day...
Close interactions isn't really out of the ordinary, but directly feeding a carnivoran in a walkthrough setting is a bit different than a trained...
Bit surprised they were actually allowed to do that, seeing as Kinkajou is a carnivore and the general restrictions around them.
Not really ideal - they're typically quite retiring and not all that active during the day. You could do a reverse lighting situation, but I'm not...
It has been just over two weeks now. Plenty of time to fix that - I emailed them back in early January about a similarly blatant issue and it was...
It can be done with larger spaces, I remember San Diego had lovebirds mixed in a couple of aviaries a few years ago. I definitely wouldn't cramp...
This is definitely true - they're definitely at a disadvantage there. They don't seem to be throwing much money at updating anything though for...
Though even that may not inherently be accurate for species routinely bred in captivity such as the otter and porcupine - chance is subspecies...
Been musing over something - The Dolphin Company maintains 4 facilities with AZA accreditation and has another currently in the pathways program....
It seems to vary, yeah - IUCN continues to recognize five subspecies:
They will be javanicus outside the AZA too, the question is whether there is domestic mixed in. There are a number of questionable purity Banteng...
I would like to point out that there is no indication in the document as to whether that mix was actually somewhat successful or not. I noted at...
Separate names with a comma.
