    Worth noting that Brookfield has both yellow-backed duiker and red-flanked duiker, as well as lowland nyala.
    SDZSP still has one elderly female remaining.

    Racine's last Caucasian tur, Tavek, has sadly passed away. And with his passing, this species has disappeared from US AZA zoos. However, Toronto still has them and is actively breeding them but that is likely going to change in the next couple years.

    I was at the Cleveland Metroparks Zoo today, and the following ungulates are no longer signed (or on exhibit, to my knowledge.)

    Greater Malay Chevrotain
    Western Tufted Deer
    Klipspringer

    All of these species are still listed on the website, but I’m not sure that the site is up to date. Anyway, I was bummed to miss out on the chevrotain :( They are so cute.

    What's the secondary market for Rhinos? I know sellers for most of those (even giraffes) but I've never seen a Rhino in the trades.
