I've just come back from a visit to the two zoos of Paris with my family. When we visited Paris zoological park, we learned that a new manatee had arrived earlier this year. From the sign about the new arrival, his name is Kaï and he came from Zoo de Guadeloupe. However, his arrival is not mentioned on their website nor their facebook page. Has anyone else been to Paris zoo recently and learnt about Kaï? At some point, I will upload some photos that we took at both Parc zoologique de Paris and la Menagerie du Jardin des Plantes.
This was the previous project, including a sixth one area supposed to open few years after the whole opening. Due to a lack of budget, I'm not really sure if It will be done. (Check the bottom-right corner with "Afrique Equatoriale") http://www.leszoosdanslemonde.com/zoos/europe/france/paris_zoo/maps/paris_zoo_plan_2010ca_projet.jpg
To add more to my post above: the last I heard before coming to Paris last month was that there were three male manatees; Tinus, Herbert and Husar. But when we came to the manatee tank on our visit, we saw that there was a fourth manatee in the tank. There was a laminated sign on the glass saying that it was a newly arrived male named Kaï. I can't remember from the sign when he came this year, but I do remember it saying that he came from Zoo de Guadeloupe, which is not mentioned on Zootierliste as having ever kept manatee. So I was wondering if anyone else knows?
It seems that plans have changed : Kaï was supposed to be released in a natural reserve in Guadeloupe (Grand Cul-de-sac Marin). He was coming from Singapore with an other manatee (Junior) who died from renal infection. (That happen in 2016th summer). But for a reason that I ignore, Kaï came to Paris in october 2018. Some articles about it (in french of course) : Leszoosdanslemonde • Afficher le sujet - Un projet vise à réintroduire le lamantin en Guadeloupe
Are there any published statistics on the zoo's tropical biodome? Like costs and size? I've looked and I haven't been able to find anything.

Thank you, Clem! I probably should have considered searching in French! This remains my favorite tropical house by far.
