安佐動物公園 asazoo 34°29'52.65"N132°26'29.73"E At Sept. 08, 2018 dies with 0.1 Black Rhino "Hana" one of the oldest Black Rhinos in captivity. The female came to the zoo on July 14, 1971 and delivered (according to website) approx. 10 calves. http://www.asazoo.jp/asazoo/20180908_ハナ死亡 .pdf
Worth pointing out that this zoo is, to the best knowledge of the forum, the only one outside Africa to hold Forest Elephant.
The Akiyoshidai Safari Land in Yamaguchi still had a male in 2017 - I can't find anything more recent so he may have died. Petra's elephant website doesn't include Yamaguchi for some reason.
Jaza still lists Asa zoo and Safari land on their website. However Asa zoo's website refers their elephants as steppe elephants. アフリカゾウ ／ African Steppe Elephant｜動物紹介｜安佐動物公園 asazoo However, based on what I can tell from a sign in a instagram post of a visitor from jan 21, the zoo has one single forest elephant exhibited with African elephants Anyways back to Asa. If google translate is accurate, then Asa zoo is also keeping a tapir that lavks a diaphragm and has a very sensitive heart. 驚異の生きる力! 奇跡の「クニオ」 横隔膜がないバク - FNN.jpプライムオンライン
