These three entries will need revising - the only two species of howler in Europe are black (A.caraya) and Venezuelan red (A.seniculus), so the chances are you just saw regular black, where the males are dark and females are blonde. As for spider monkey, according to zootierliste Blackpool keep Colombian black so again you’re going to want to edit that entry! So to sum up it should now read: 3. Black howler monkey 4. Colombian black spider monkey And you should end up with a total of 27

thanks for correcting me (genuinely, as I type this it sounds sarcastic) I have put the new list on now
I figured I would join the challenge as well - all of these were seen on two visits to Colchester Zoo within the last week; the animals are listed in order that I encounter them on my normal trip around the zoo rather than the order they were seen in: 1.

I would actually like to know what the rules are here as some species (eg Bactrian camel, yak, Japanese quail) are only represented by their domesticated form...
I believe the standing rule is that domestics do not count. However..... It certainly did when I last visited as did Slimbridge.
Just checking- I saw them at Slimbridge last month- though they have just one pair nowadays, but don't remember them at Cotswold.* The genuine wild version has always been a relatively uncommon species in the UK. * Have found them in the Zoochat gallery for Cotswold, dated a few years back, so presumably they still have them. Great species- the wild version.
Not the best weather to visit Hamerton, but as I was nearby, I couldn't resist a visit anyway. After several circuits, I saw most of the available species 78 Goeldi's monkey 79 Pudu 80 Greater Curassow 81 Burrowing Owl 82 Sun Conure 83 Giant Wood Rail 84 Scarlet Ibis 85 Crested Seriema 86 Greater Rhea 87 Tayra 88 Daubenton's curassow 89 Greater Grison 90 Oncilla 91 Jaguarundi There was also a green/red parrot in with the Daubenton's curassow, unsigned. I may add at a later date if it's south american .
Thanks to ShonenJake13 for the ID 92 White - eyed Conure Short visit to Paradise Wildlife Park 2/2/19 93 Spectacled Owl 94 Military Macaw 95 Cane toad 96 Silvery marmoset 97 Emperor Tamarin 98 Three banded armadillo 99 Jaguar 100 Ocelot 101 Baron's Racer 102 False Water Cobra

The Exotic Zoo- 17/02/2019 78) Common Marmoset (Callithrix jacchus) 79) Patagonian Mara (Dolichotis patagonum) 80) Barn Owl (Tyto alba) 81) False Water Cobra (Hydrodynastes gigas) 82) Red-eye Tree Frog (Agalychnis callidryas) 83) Cane Toad (Rhinella marina) 84) Burrowing Owl (Athene cunicularia) 85) Long-tailed Chinchilla (Chinchilla lanigera) Annoyingly missed both Armadillo species!
That's a ballsy inclusion (though allowable per the rules) -I suspect I'm more South American than that owl.
Only if you go with the lumpiest definition of the species generally speaking the New World races are split into Tyto furcata now.
Many thanks for that clarification (I don't know how you taxonomy nerds keep up with all these developments). I've reviewed the situation and unfortunately for Magpie Goose, unless the bird was labelled Tyto furcata, I'll have to disallow it (blame TLD for schooling us). Phew, I was morally uncomfortable allowing it -although the rules flex for practical reasons it did seem a bit absurd (it's one thing not knowing the provenance of a Jaguar which couldn't be found "that far" from South America but quite another for a world-ranging "species"). Bless taxonomy changes (in this instance). Finally, I would point out that there are some, allowable, American Barn Owls in UK collections (mainly small birds of prey centres).
