Zoo Domaine de la Bourbansais is soon to become the 4th European and the first French holder for Smooth Coated Otters. They will be housed in a new exhibit mixed with Lar Gibbons
The Smooth Coated Otters mentioned in the first post have had pups - a first breeding in France. The parents were originally offspring from pairs at Colchester and Wingham
Two amur tigers born at the beginning of July. The father is Makari born in England in 2016 and the mother is Liska born in Zurich in 2011.
The zoo will welcome maned wolves in 2021, new species for the park. We don't know more about the enclosure and the animals for the moment.
The zoo received a 1 year old female maned wolf called Béléza born in Le Reynou. She will be paired with a male called Yaru and arrived this year too (don't know where he came from).
Great news as the zoo will welcome critically endangered european mink next year (new addition). This species does not fit well this zoo but it is good to allow visitors to discover this nice native species. Parc Zoologique et Château de la Bourbansais - Zoo - parc animalier - Pleugueneuc
