Any of these in U.S. zoos? and where?

I'm sure these have been asked in several different posts but it's impossible to read them all. Wondering which zoos in the U.S. have these species? Any help would be appreciated!

Woolly Monkey
Elephant Seal
Forest Buffalo
Cape Buffalo
Musk Ox
Uakari (I'm assuming only L.A.)
Pangolin(I'm assuming only San Diego)
Secretary Bird

 

Even though I'm not from the US I can answer a couple of them; Forest buffalo, there's least one in San Diego; Musk ox at Point Defiance and possiby Minnesota; Cape buffalo at SD Safari Park; Elephant seal found occasionally at San Francisco as rehab animals.
Hope that's all still correct.

 

San Diego Zoo has secretary birds.

Your best bet to see an elephant seal is probably to visit their wild colonies along the California coast. There is a colony on Highway 1 near Hearst Castle and a colony in Northern California near San Francisco at Ano Nuevo state park. As Brum said the SF Zoo may have rehab animals sometimes. The best place to look for captive individuals would be the Marine Mammal Center in Marin County, just north of SF, where stranded or injured animals are returned to health.

Safari West in Santa Rosa, California has Cape buffalo in addition to the Safari Park as noted by Brum.

 

See, I think I did pretty well for a UK Zoochatter who's never been to America!

 

Thanks Brum and David! Looks like I'll be planning a CA. trip in the near future.

 

Some have been addressed, but I'm just going to summarize here as well as add new information.

Wooly Monkey -> There does not currently seem to be any in US zoos, but they do appear to be available in the pet trade (unfortunately) WOOLLY MONKEY MALE AVAILABLE and as such are probably found in some private zoos.

Elephant Seal -> While I'm not sure whether San Francisco rehabs them, they are routinely brought in to the Marine Mammal Center in Sausalito, CA and it is possible to visit this facility. The Marine Mammal Center : Visiting Us: Seeing is Believing

Forest Buffalo -> As previously mentioned there is one individual in San Diego. There also appears to be some at Lex Salisbury's Safari Wilderness Ranch in Central Florida. Safari Wilderness | Central Florida

Cape Buffalo -> San Diego Zoo Safari Park, Tulsa Zoo, and Safari West, and Denver all have them (at least have had them recently)

Musk Ox -> Point Defiance, Minnesota, and Roosevelt Park (ND) all have them or have had them recently.

Red Uakari -> Los Angeles

Pangolin -> San Diego has a Tree Pangolin that is viewable during keeper talks.

Secretary Bird -> Found in many places including San Diego Zoo and San Diego Zoo Safari Park, Honolulu, Denver, Miami, Kansas City, Safari West, Philadelphia, and more.

 

Cape Buffalo are at Busch Gardens Tampa Bay and possibly Denver Zoo.

 

Yeah Secretary Bird aren't exactly rare.

 

Northwest Wildlife Trek Park? Do you mean Northwest Trek outside Tacoma, or is this somewhere else?

Yes, thank you I forgot Busch Gardens.

 

Brookfield Zoo had a Forest Buffalo as of last year but the zoo has recently renovated the African Forest section so I do not know if she is still there.

 

Let's see

Wooly monkey: not that I'm aware of(however there are some in Europe)
Elephant seals: best shot would be california(as already said)
Forest buffalo: sd safari is the only one I know of
Pangolin:just San Diego
Uakari:just LA
Secretary bird: as ituri said
Musk ox: point defiance, minnisota, and northwest trek come to mind

Hope that helps

Not bad for a 13 year old scot who has never been to the US

 

Louisville Zoo has Woolly Monkeys

TropicWorld54- I believe Brookfield's buffalo is gone.
epickoala- The Forest Buffalo is not at San Diego Zoo Safari Park, but at the Zoo itself.

 

Thanks everybody! Looks like many of these would require a West Coast trip, which is kind of what I thought. When I went to Philly Zoo I didn't see the Secretary Birds, just a sign for them. I am going to Miami in March so hopefully I will see them there. Their website doesn't have a full animal listing so I wasn't sure. The closest Musk Ox for me is probably Zoo Sauvage in Quebec and that's about a 13 hour ride.

 

I do NOT think there are or ever have been musk oxen at Northwest Trek. Certainly not when I was there and not that I have ever heard. That park is for animals native to Washington state only - were musk oxen ever found that far south in recent times? (Not sure - that is an honest question).

I had heard a rumor a couple years ago that Dallas World Aquarium was trying to aquire red uakaris, but I guess nothing came of that.

 

Arizona-I think you are right about Northwest Trek. I checked their website and don't see Musk Ox listed anywhere.

 

Re: Northwest Trek and musk ox, I think that is a confusion with the Point Defiance Zoo in Tacoma which is in the same general area and (I think) run by the same governmental agency.

 

To clear things up Denver Does still have Cape Buffalo, but like their Dall's Sheep, will not breed them for sometime.

Just out of curiosity, what do you believe is unfortunate about woolly monkeys in the trade?

 

Here's two more for the list: Giant Forest Hog and Margay

 

@wilson said on 10-16-12 that the Forest buffalo was still at Brookfield.
