    Maybe 1980s? I believe they went, to make more room for gorillas.

    Great new !!! Mother is Uzuri- very young, only 11 years old. Father is Coco, who comes from Cabarceno, was brought in 2015 and is 19 years old. The last calf was Nusu born September 10, 2018. I believe that in 2020 we can expect more calves, because Tammi had the last calf 5 years ago, Jara is 14 years old and has not yet had a calf and Etana will soon be 12 years old.

    Yes, they still live here. But it is quite possible that they will soon move.
