    Ananda and Yoe Ma, the two twelve years old bull elephants kept in Maubeuge will go in the next months to La Tannière in a more suitable exhibit. They will join Rajendra, a nine years old bull elephant from Kolner Zoo.
    Maubeuge will receive two new younger bulls in the future.

    2 Sumatran tigresses recently arrived from Burgers Zoo. They are named Tess and Nonja and were born there.
