Birds of Paradise in captivity

According to zootierliste, it’s 2.0 animals for Prague and 1.1 for Plzen?

 

Prague zoo mentions an arrival of 1,1 in May (květen) here Přírůstky

Usually, ZTL is very accurate for Prague so no idea who is wrong.

 

Wrocław Zoo has Twelve-wired bird-of-paradise. Pair arrived last year and was off-show until reopening of Bird House in June this year. Also second male arriving from Walsrode is on show now.

 

Rather old news, but it doesn't seem to have been mentioned in this thread: Cologne Zoo has acquired 3,0 twelve-wired birds-of-paradise, 1,2 lesser, and 2,0 + 0,1 (apparently from another source) king birds-of-paradise from a confiscation back in 2019. They are all behind the scenes except for one twelve-wired BOP in the rainforest house which can be seen since this year.

 

From Wildlife Reserve Singapore's Facebook page :
Our Breeding and Research Centre sees hundreds of chicks, like this lesser bird-of-paradise chick, come through its doors every year. Many of them start off as eggs in our incubators. After they are hatched, they are handraised by our bird nannies to give them the best chances of survival. This is especially crucial for endangered species, to boost their population numbers under human care. Stay tuned for more tales from our Breeding and Research Centre!

Was lucky to see it two weeks ago! Nice sign aswell. Living in a mixed bird exhibit

 

Bird Park Hambantota in Sri Lanka houses 3 species of BOP of which 2 are off display.
(x.x) Twelve Wired Bird of Paradise (Seleucidis Melanoleucus)
(x.x) King Bird of Paradise (Cicinnurus Regius)
(x.x>1)Count Raggi’s bird-of-paradise (Paradisaea Raggiana) (1 female on display)

 

Brookfield is a new holder of Raggiana Bird-of-Paradise.

 

As far as I can see nobody has mentioned Lembang Park & Zoo so far. This is quite a new zoo in Indonesia.
The following BoP were kept (December 2022):
- Paradisaea minor
- Paradisaea apoda
- Lophorina magnifica
- Seleucidis melanoleucus
At least 2 pairs per species.

Here are some updates for holders already mentioned in this thread:

Gembira Loka Zoo in Yogyakarta:
- Paradisaea minor, at least 1,1 in Dec. 2022

Surabaya Zoo: (not mentioned yet ?)
- Cicinnurus regius (no show) Dec 2022

Bali Bird Park:
- Cicinnurus regius, at least 1 breeding pair (January 2023)
- Paradisaea rubra, at least 1,1
- Paradisaea minor; chicks hatched July and December 2021, July and October 2022 according to the list of most recent hatchings.

Jurong Bird Park (last days before closure in December 2022):

For those interested, I put together an updated list of North American (US) bird-of-paradise holders a few months ago.

None currently live in South America, but São Paulo zoo held a pair of both Wilson's red birds-of-paradise back in the 1970s. I believe they had come from London.

 

Sorry for the typo. I meant Wilson's (Ciscinnusrus respublica) AND red birds-of-paradise (Paradisaea rubra).
