    Ree Park - two new cubs born to Gasha and Asim on 19th Feb

    Does anyone know where the two male cubs from Gasha's previous litter went? Are they still at Ree Park?

    Rimba went to Zoological Center Tel Aviv - Rama Gan on december 19 2016 and Whitey is still at Ree Park. Didn't one of the male cubs have a white tail and white paws?

    Thank you for the info, SweetTigress

    Yes one of the male cubs did have white paws and tail when young. However I haven't seen any recent photos of him so am unsure if the white markings remained or changed color as he grew older

    Kepala was meant to breed with Kirana,but is was discovered that the two where related so he was transferred to Dublin Zoo(I think,correct me if necessary) and Fabi was transferred to Chester.

    They knew Kirana and Kepala were related. They were never going to breed. Hence the studbook keeper recommended pairing Fabi with Kirana and Kepala being placed at Dublin (who at that time had just lost there previous adult male)

    Zoo Jihlava announced birth of unspecifed number of cubs. It´s first breeding of pair Dandys/Cinta. Zoo doesn´t know the exact number because they dont want to disturb Cinta and there is no camera in the breeding den.

    Paignton cannot move out mammals until the zoo is declared clear of bovine TB, following the outbreak last year which led to the herd of lechwe being culled. More details in the Paignton forum.
