RIP Subu, I agree he was a magnificent lion and a ripe age too. He did seem sad after Leoni died though when we visited the last few times.
Once again, thanks for the update - he's looking more like Asoka with every batch of photos! How's it going with the female he was introduced to...
I'm not trying to be antagonist, irresponsible or unethical, I just meant raise awareness of the 'oranguans' species in general, after all, few of...
I agree entirely.
So sorry at your disappointment. We are all entitled to our opinions and sentiments. I did not mean I prefered 'humanised' orangutans just...
I agree entirely, there will never be another Rajang, with whom you can interact so fully and he remembers you. Batu is magnificent, but he just...
I've had confirmation from Colchester Zoo to say the same - it was a rumour - I'm so relieved, I had a restless night to say the least!
I've seen the comments too but can't find anything further. I'm very worried - a sleepless night I think. Hope it's nothing serious. :confused:
Aww thanks so much for these lovely photos - he's a handsome fella now -as already said, defo looking like his dad Asoka. :)
Awww what a handsome boy he now is! Little Tejas's could be on the way then?? :) Thanks for the update, always nice to know how he is doing:)
We agree with all that is being said on this thread re demolishing, putting species off display without any notice, and the introduction of mass...
Was there 27/28th - saw the mice too, the keepers are aware of them, as you said, there are a few!! Rajang was extremely lively and climbing onto...
Don't get me all worried like that Karen re Rajy being nowhere to be seen!!! What a nice gesture though .... Rajy stroking Tiga's hair - I've...
Many thanks for all the interesting info - Subu is certainly doing well then - I never realised their lifespan is so short. Here's hoping for...
Poor Djambe .... I never had the priviledge to meet her - so sad! I've never seen Rajang and her together. :(
Oh thanks for this info - he's outlived them all then!! Let's hope he has many more years to come! How long do lions live on average?
Wow .... he's magnificent for his age! I didn't realise that he was that age! He's a lovely lion. Mind you, Leoni was lovely too - such a shame...
Great news re the new male rhino - little Zamba is soooo cute!! Was one of the other females pregnant via AI? Bet the baby pigmy hippo is a...
Aww Pour Subu, he seemed really restless when we were there a couple of weeks ago - just pacing about in the inside bit giving huge roars. It was...
I can only begin to imagine how you are feeling - I will be the same when it's Rajang's time, such a character can soon become part of your life...
