was at Chester earlier today and got chatting to a keeper from the giraffe section while i was watching the anoa and funny enough taun and ZooMania had asked me to find out if their bringimg in a new female for Hubba (the anoa's name) but she just said they were looking and fingers crossed they'll get some females from some other zoo. But she said that he's fine on his own in that paddock. Just by luck, today was hubba's first day on the island as he's been inside the barn since he arrived from london and that's why the keeper was there watching over him. So taun and ZooMania i'm afraid were going to have to wait for the pitter patter of anoa calves at Chester. Sorry i couldn't find out anything else i.e Kirana's pregnancy and where the African Wild dogs will be placed in the zoo. Hubba is one lovely looking anoa, well worth visiting him.
Okay, well I'm pretty sure other calves were born at ZSL since then, although they scaled back the numbers held a couple of years ago. What I don't really get is that, with the old breeding pair left on exhibit at London, why is there a new male anoa in the giraffe house?
