Have noticed that there is no link in the search box for this location, I didn't want to start another thread but couldn't find the other one. Will be visiting on Friday and will hopefully getting a full species list as the ZTL list is so far out of date some species having left the collection over 2 years ago. This is a small collection to say the least but I did find it enjoyable on my last visit and always said I would return. Will be taking photographs of the collection and photographs from outside the collection, as it's a short walk from Whitlock's end rail station, end of car park turn right then first right and keep walking for around 5/10 minutes collection on left inside a garden centre.
Now have a current species list on show and off show - Amphibians - African clawed frog African bullfrog Banded bullfrog Argentine horned frog Reptiles - Western hognose snake Yemen chameleon Sinalone milksnake Savvanna monitor Royal python New caledonia gaint gecko Leopard tortoise European legless lizard Crested gecko Common leopard gecko Common green iguana Birds - Cut throat finch European hoopoe Lesser blue eared starling Lilac breasted roller Purple glossy starling Red winged starling Schalow's turaco (very tame) Speckled pigeon Superb glossy starling Taveta golden weaver Viellot's black weaver Village weaver All other species that are listed on ZTL are no longer at the collection most have been transfered to other collections and unfortunately a couple did die due to old age. If anyone is a member and able to transfer the names not listed above to the former holding I would be very grateful.
I have just visited ztl and after reading the current species list i was wondering what has happened to the following bird species since my visit in June this year Lesser blue eared starling Lilac breasted roller Purple glossy starling Red winged starling Schalow's turaco Viellot's black weaver
Sorry, I don't understand the question - some of these are still listed as current holdings on zootierliste. My last visit was two months ago, but the tropical house and aviary is now closed for the winter.
I copied a list from ztl yesterday and the above were not showing on the list but after reading your comment I went and copied the list again and guess what they are on the list so why weren't they on the copied list I did first. The current list now states 27 species yesterday it was stating 21
