ZooChat Challenge UK 2016

Paignton's Cooke's Tree Boa are not Cook's they are in fact Amazon Tree Boa,I had this confirmed by a member of staff on my visit,they have just left the sign up as the general public would not be able to tell the difference any way between the 2 species!!

 

I hope this is only temporary, otherwise it is a bit of a betrayal of the zoo's educational mission. Species should be correctly signed so people know what they are looking at.

 

Well they are not the only collection that has got them wrong, for that you can blame zims which didn't recognise Amazon Tree until this year. Also so far on this challenge I have seen about 15 species labelled wrong in about a dozen different collections.

 

Right for the first time i will make a post that states where I have visited,only because I know a few people have visited and as a result of an old label using old taxonomy have,listed something wrong as a result!Thrigby have a Blood Python labelled as Python curtus but it is in fact a Python brongersmai which used to be Python curtus brongersmai,before they were split and raised to full species in there own right!Also for it to be a curtus the colour is wrong as its not Black in colour!

 

Right a proper update of my total as my previous post has stated I had a bit of a run out to Thrigby,but have also visited a couple of places that didn't need such a long journey time to reach them so as a result,I have a few more to add to the total

Will post the duplicates as soon as I have worked them out!

 

Where are the amazon and emerald tree boas on display at chester? I've tried looking for the amazons several times, but to no avail...

 

Amazons are in the left hand side poison dart frog exhibit and emerald are in enclosure by caiman lizard.

 

More to the point the Amazons have been there for atleast 2 years!!

 

Yeah, i've looked for them quite a few times since you uploaded that photo to the gallery, but have never been able to see any. 2 years and still no sign for them? Yikes!

 

I have found they spend most of the time up high hidden in the foliage,I find standing on the step in front of the exhibit helps you to spot them,as you have a higher view,instead of just looking up and hoping!

 

Three new species from Colchester Zoo:

26. Yellow-margined box turtle Cuora flavomarginata
27. Red-eared slider Trachemys scripta elegans
