The male Amur tiger named Botsman (arrived at the park in 2019) left the zoo to go to Ljubljana Zoo, creating a new breeding pair. The 3 cubs born last year will remain at PNV with the mother at least until the end of this year.
A Chinese Water Dragon has been abbandoned by a vistitor in the House of Giants and the park contacted the authorities, we don't know if they'll keep it, but I thought it was a news worth of sharing
That's very sad news, he was there since the beginning and was the chilliest rhino of them all, he always played with the young hippos, now it'll be difficult to find another rhino that tolerates the other pachiderms
3 Keas hatched 2 Bearded Vulture eggs might hatch 4 Brogna lambs came to life A 3 months European Bison, Eracle, has been released on Carpatian mounts A shelter for wild Bald Ibis is under construction Three Red Fronted Macaws are coming soon Two Edwards Pheasants are coming this year too
Adding to this that it was a flop, their enclosure is huge for animals of their size and they're rarely seen. Aoudads and crowned cranes have been phased out and saddle-billed stork and springbok will soon join the roster of phased out animals, the zoo is heading towards a more stereotypical and commercial zoo with less rare and peculiar animals and more big game ones; moreover, the gorilla habitat in their masterplan has been postponed to after 2027, but I'm keen on thinking they're gonna start working on the Wolf Restaurant soon
The female Persian fallow deer is about to leave the zoo, there is a possibility that urials will arrive in her enclosure

A female red river hog named kamali arrived from Chorzow zoo Parco Natura Viva on Instagram: " L’abbiamo chiamata KAMALI, che in africano significa “perfezione”. È lei la piccola nuova arrivata dai POTAMOCERI, al Safari; nata a Chorzow, in Polonia, nel giugno 2021, e arrivata qui al Parco circa un mesetto fa. Si è già ambientata molto bene nella sua nuova casa, e in poco tempo ha fatto amicizia con i nuovi coinquilini: Shani e la sua mamma Clara. Kamali va già molto d’accordo con Shani e trascorrono moltissimo tempo insieme! Che sia già sbocciato l’Amore tra i due?! Vi terremo aggiornati! @vavacasc #parconaturaviva #potamocero #newarrivals #newarrival #redriverhog #redriverhogs #zoonews #potamochoerusporcus"
Two news: - Both the two Spectacled bears died of old age (Bahia the female was the oldest in Europe) - Two urials arrived, they're hosted in the ex fallow deer exhibit in the European area
A "dozen" (according to the park's Instagram page) red-whiskered bulbul have been released inside House of Giants (the zoo's tropical house) The Urials have been named Mario and Luigi, specifically after the world's most famous plumber brothers
I have no idea Since the death of the oldest Spectacled bear, their former habitat is empty, but a new inhabitant seems to be already planned...
