Africa Alive! Africa Alive

Nampula the E. Bongo actually arrived on the 11th, but it's no big deal.

Snippets and Puzzle, the remnants of the hybrid Giraffe herd are still at AA!, as far as I am aware, with male and female Reticulated Giraffe (Kimoni and Kiara respectively) being kept apart, for obvious reasons.

Also, not sure if it's been mentioned here, but Africa Alive are still waiting upon another delivery of a female Reticulated Giraffe. I don't remember where from, though Germany springs to mind again, as the other two were from there.

 

Sorry Ciaran, the AA facebook said the 13th.

 

Yeah, it did, and the signs at the park say the 12th... But I have it on good authority that it was the 11th... Weird!

 

2:0 Cheetah have been transfered to Port Lymphe

 

The sign on the park does say 11th

 

A King Colobus Monkey was born recently,

 

Re hybrid giraffe: is there already a final destination for them or a park willing to take them on and allow AA to concentrate on breeding reticulateds?

 

A king Colobus named Google was born 26/08/11.

 

A female white Rhino named Norma arrived from Parque oasys Tabernas on the 17th September and has been introduced to the other two females Gracie and Beth.

More moves like this one please (finally we are breaking up sister-bro pairings). I am sure it will help improve breeding.

 

I was at Africa Alive on Wednesday and was wondering where they had the mum and 3 little one"s tucked away, the two males (Joshi & ???) were separated as they keep fighting.

 

Sorry but I need to correct this, my information is that the 2 males are not separated because they have been fighting, they have never been introduced and never will. The 2nd male (Quartz) is at Africa Alive! as Banham is holding the 2 male cubs that were born at AA in 2009.

These two males are due to depart soon and then Quartz should return to Banham to be paired up with a female that should arrive from another collection in the near future.

 

Really, oh well I'm only repeating the infomation I was told during there feed.

 

Are you sure that the information you were given was that they are kept apart because if they did put them together they would fight rather than that they have been fighting....just a thought.

 

If the male cubs from 2009 are at Banham, then who are the 2:0 that Port Lymphe recieved from AA not so long ago??

 

Na i'm pretty sue of what she said.

 

I think the litter contained 4 males and a female so the other 2 males sent to Port Lympne were from the same litter as the 2 currently at Banham.

 

Very odd because I am sure it is incorrect and cant think why they would say that but as those two males have never been mixed.

 

Sorry, I thought the litter was 2:2 for some reason Thanks for putting me straight
