Can I check whether the Colobus (Western guereza) at Twycross is the right one to count in this challenge? Someone else has counted it, but I wanted to check.

Sorry folks! I copy and pasted someone else's list to save me typing it all out, edited out the species I didn't require...and obviously didn't do a complete job! I've edited the list now so should be correct
Paignton Zoo 130) Golden Pheasant 131) African Elephant 132) Collared Peccary 133) Barbary Sheep 134) Sulphur-crested Cockatoo 135) Echidna Some news about the motmot; he has been moved offshow due to the temperature in his home being too high, so expect him back onshow come autumn/winter.
Marwell Zoo 27/05/2018 42. Ruffed Lemur 43. Giant Anteater 44. Mountain Zebra 45. White Rhinoceros 46. Okapi 47. Ring-tailed Coati 48. Snow Leopard 49. Leopard (Amur) 50. Cheetah 51. Greater Flamingo 52. Marabou Stork Also just realised I haven't included a couple species from the BCA teaching zoo, but as that is only open on specific days I'm guessing that doesn't count?
I presume not as it probably falls foul of rule four: "Any severely limited opening or private collections (e.g. Heythrop, WHF, and any similar collections or refuges) don't count for this challenge. Controversial I know, but see previous point and I didn't think it fair to include a handful of days these collections might be open to the public as this might logistically disadvantage a large number of people"
For what it's worth. I'll never win this! ( I don't have the time or the money! ) Wildwood 28/5/18 140 Arctic Fox
