    A new important birth: a Mhorr Gazelle! (Plus the newspaper says that in Zoom there are 9 Mhorr Gazelles now and this is confusing)

    Non credo si possa parlare in italiano qua comunque non credo, perché devono iniziare a costruire il nuovo Zoom City a Torino, e quindi un nuovo zoo, c'è il progetto sul sito ufficiale
    I don't think so because they are going to start building the new Zoom City in Torino, so a new zoo, there's the project on the official website

    - The new area that will be opened this June is called Malawi Beach, it consists of two swimming pools for people, one is called Hippo Rapid, it will have currents and make people swim near the hippos divided by a glass (as it works with the penguins), the other is called Fish Bay, here people will be able to swim with chiclids (just a closed number of people) and to touch rays
