Things are still happening. I decided to build most of the enclosures myself and it will obviously take longer, much longer then if I were to hire...
It might change, there will definitely be keepers present at all times in these enclosures.
I wouldn't trust porcupines with visitors, but possibly there could be a part of the enclosure where visitors can't enter, where the porcipines...
Great suggestion, but they dig much deeper then meerkats, so it could lead to problems with escape. But I'm looking into it.
I've often stated that I hate species lists and I've been rambling about how pointless I think they are as I believe exhibits, presentation and...
I went looking for them about 10 years ago. Didn’t find them. At that time they said there would be thousands in 10 years. Seems as if numbers...
Thank you for your interest. Things are going great. We’re mostly working on landscaping at this point and the real construction will begin this...
Again, thanks for your interest. Things are progressing, albeit quite slowly. There is a rough site plan, but it's very basic. I really hope I'm...
Lowland tapirs can also be dangerous. On one occation one of my keepers lost a chunk of his thigh to a very tame individual. It turned out later...
I like that someone is that guy! I don’t really have much time for zoochat these days, or maybe I’ve just gotten a bit bored. But I can tell you...
Getting them to accept each other is one thing, and the fact that we see the combination quite often would indicate that that isn't very...
Thank you for your interest. There isn’t much to tell at the moment. We’re landscaping and working on permits.
Well it’s not something you’d actually see as a normal visitor. In a large enclosure I think it would be unlikely the entire area would be covered...
Does anyone know of an exhibit for meerkats that doensn't have a concrete base or is completely covered in wire mesh under the earth or sand? I...
There was no appeal against the planning permission, so these plans are becoming more and more real. Construction will start this summer.
Getting the animals is the easy part. When you've reached the stage where you are looking for animals to fill your enclosures for your newly built...
No need to apologize. I appreciate your interest. No appeals have been filed yet, but there is still time for them to do so. I haven't started...
Is it what you expected it to be, this far? I'm thinking about peoples reception and number of visitors.
Very interesting species. They should not be kept alone, so try finding a few more of equal size. They have a very strict hierarchy and distinct...
Planning permission has come through, but some neighbors might appeal against it. I’ll know in a few weeks. Still a positive thing though.
