    According to a recent Instagram post 3 Phillippine porcupines (Hystrix pumila) can be found in the
    Africa Pavilion, they will eventually move to the Orientarium. This is a new species for the zoo. The same post also mentions the following arrivals: 2-year old female Red kangaroo (Osphranter rufus) and 2 female Vicunas (Vicugna vicugna) from a zoo in Denmark.

    On December 2nd two Sumatran orangutans came to the zoo from zoo Basel. It is a female Ketawa and a male Budi. Resident at the Orientarium. White-faced saki (from Leipzig) and a female southern tamandua (from Duizburg) are also new residents. A male bearded emperor tamarin came from the Plock zoo and joined the lone female living in the zoo.

    According to the zoos instagram a bamboo shark recently arrived, they don't mention a specific species. Could someone tell from the photo in their instagram post which species it is?
