    - Harold has finished quarantine and is being introduced (in the off-display yards) to the other four giraffes this week.
    - Giraffe number six (who I think is a brother to Harold) is leaving Monarto by road on Wednesday. Crew from the Seven Network's "The Zoo" program are accompanying him.
    - Servals have been returned to their off-display holding area after an extension.
    - Two meerkats are on their way to Symbio.
    - Two male African Hunting Dogs are on their way from Mogo Zoo to form a breeding pack with the nine females already at the zoo.
    - Two recent births - a bison calf and zebra foal. I don't know what genders.

    No idea, sorry. All I know is he is a young bull from Monarto.
