Hi everyone I've just joined ZooChat. I'm from New Zealand. I love learning about the animals in the Australian and New Zealand zoos and see there are some amazing posts about the history of different species on here. This is what inspired me to join so I can learn more, and ask all my questions! Thanks for reading my opening post.
Welcome to ZooChat @Tafin. I’m not sure what animals you’re most interested in; but if you’re into the genealogy of mammals (I see you posted in the Australian mammals thread), here’s a few threads that may be of interest: Former Mammals In New Zealand Zoos (1980 to present) Common Hippopotami at Auckland Zoo [Auckland Zoo] giraffes in New Zealand Australian and ( NZ) Elephants news and discussion Australian (and NZ) Great Ape News and Discussion Chimpanzee Troop [Taronga Zoo] Big/Small Cats in Australasian Zoos – News, History and Discussion Happy reading; happy posting!
I no longer consider myself to be very knowledgeable about any species! I would say that I maybe know a little bit about a wide variety of animals, but mainly birds.
I was told the joke was getting repetitive and didn't want to become annoying but if you really enjoy them I suppose I can bring it back sporadically Also @Tafin, happy you're enjoying your time and we're all happy to have you here
