    And one of them is the father of the recent 2,2 cubs at Hagenbeck, Hamburg.

    Animal, do you know the following;

    A) The birth date of the male (Now the father of 2.2)?
    B) Do you know where Nibalo came from it said somewhere in Germany.

    A) Not sure about his birthdate, but he should be named "gofrey".

    B) Nibalo comes from Hagenbeck. He was in the 4,1 litter from 2006 (13.08.2006, Father Nordwall (renamed for the press Napoleon for some reason), Mother Tembesi)

    Sounds about right, thank you. Could you please find out his birth date at some point if you can?:)

    Can you tell me how Nibalo acts with the females. He was for a long time only together with his brother before he moved.

    I've never actually seen him properly but he's dominant over them and the father of 10 cubs!
