No it seems to be a phase out species for the zoo. Perhaps the exhibit is being spruced up or maybe they have plans for another species. No clue. They are sterilized males I believe.
Wow long time to place them. I thought all of the displaced animals had found homes within a couple of months. At least they have a new home and can again be seen by the public.
After a visit yesterday, I can confirm that Safari Niagara now has two waterbuck. I don't know where they came from, but my best guess is Parc Safari, the only other holders of the species in Canada.
Uploaded a few about 2 hours ago. There aren't many photos, as most of the animals were either seen from the tram and couldn't get good pictures due to the tram's movement or were in cages where my camera can't focus through.
Safari Niagara is due to receive a female two-toed sloth later this fall/winter. She is currently 4 months old and is being hand-reared at Little Ray's in Hamilton, not sure if she will be a display or education animal!
The safari is following in Toronto's foot steps and has reopened as a drive thru. Members will get in free. Non members will pay $50 per car. Drive-thru zoo experience opens at Safari Niagara Wild Adventure - Safari Niagara
A baby girl has died after a visit to Safari Niagara. Details are light but it doesn't sound like the safari is really involved other than being the place where it happened. My heart goes out to the family. How tragic probably baby's first trip to the zoo turned into her last. Infant found in medical distress at Safari Niagara pronounced dead in hospital
