    Strange that this small zoo has never had it´s own tread because it surtainly has an intresting collection. It probebly is most well-known for it´s hornbill-collection but also lots of other intresting / rare species are kept.
    Most recent births are :
    Bennet walliby 1
    Ring-tailed lemur 1
    Cereopsis goose 1
    Chacoan mara 3 ( 1 single and twins )
    Griffon vulture is incubating 1 egg

    That's great news, a species that could be immensely popular in the future. They appear to look far more appealing than the Patagonian mara and seem to breed quite readily.
