Réserve Africaine de Sigean Reserve Africaine Sigean

They're down a single female. She moved to Zoo Erfurt on Thursday to join a breeding group. In the longer term, Elephants will return to Sigean in a mixed Savannah exhibit

 

What is being kept in their former exhibit?

 

Have corrected my original reply - see above

 

Any idea when they'll build that?

The baby rhino is a male, not a female. He has just been called Ringo.

 

Thanks. I could only go on the translated facebook post "In exclusivity, here are some additional photos in high definition of our gorgeous baby rhino with her mom lima"

On March 11th, a family of 5 cheetahs left to a Dutch zoo and another family of 6 cheetahs that also lived at the zoo was relocated to the exhibit.

 

SBB - Hilvarenbeek perhaps?

 

Nope. It's Overloon. I have already put the information in Overloon's thread

 

Yes, I just checked ... it is an all change. A lone female named Kianga was sent on breeding loan to Sigean and in return the female Asali with her four cubs 1,3) were sent to ZPO to free up space in the reserve.

 

5 African Openbills arrived in March of this year from a zoo in Eastern Europe. They were born in 2019.

Also, according to the Mother's Day FB post several Wildebeest calves have been born.

 

This means Prague zoo because nobody else in "Eastern Europe" had 5 chicks last year.

 

Then, it could be them.
