    They have both species signposted - the Sclater’s (which I got earlier this year) are in the Australian walkthrough, the Scheepmaker’s are in the Oasis.

    This might well be a case of outdated signage in the Oasis - certainly I haven't heard of any imports of new stock.

    Are they confirmed, though? They would be the only Scheepmaker's in captivity and the species lives in a part of the island where imports very seldom come from. Sclater's used to be lumped into Scheepmaker's as well so it could be erroneous signage.

    All easy here :) I just wanted to know if they were definite Scheepmaker's because that'd make for another species of interest for me at Pairi!

    Australian animals don't count, right?

    They don't - I'd forgotten there were populations on Cape York!

    Will get that fixed now.

    Visited Zooparc Overloon today, a nice small collection, unfortunately not with many new additions, as I somehow managed to miss out on a lemur species, but a nice one nevertheless.

    It's the last day of the year now, so I guess that makes it time for the final overview post! Thanks everyone for participating, I was a bit uncertain about this category at first but it ended up turning out pretty fun, with a nice variety of species. Many congratulations to @TeaLovingDave for winning in not just the total category, but in ALL of the categories! Also congrats to @ShonenJake13, @MagpieGoose and @Mr. Zootycoon for making up all of rest of the top three in the various categories. The reptile numbers definitely blew me out of the water, and really give an interesting insight as to how many "island" reptiles European zoos have.

    Now for something completely different - as might have been evident this year, @KevinVar and I have perhaps lost the flare of 'competitive' zoo-visiting and have slacked a bit with keeping the lists updated the past few years, so we're officially handing the torch over to someone else! Of the three European challenges we've now organized, @ShonenJake13 has won the first two and got a firm second place in this one, so we feel like he's probably the best person to keep this challenge going! He already has a great idea for next year's thread, so it seems like we made the correct choice. :)

    Congrats to @TeaLovingDave for breaking my streak, and thanks to @Vision and @KevinVar for doing such a great job the past couple years! If anyone is interested in taking part next year, the 2020 thread is now up! Feel free to take part starting tomorrow :D
