    Seems a manatee-twin has been born but one of the young has died - was to small ( about 10 kilo ). The other calf is a little bigger ( 15 kilo - btw 20 kilo seem to be the norm ) and is watched 24 hours a day.

    Zoo Beauval actually owns 2 breeding females. The other female Henna (born in Basel Zoo) still is with her male offspring Gainda (born 2016)!!!

    Just flicking through their facebook and see that at the end of March their Brown Bears will be moving to a new space, as well as Cheetahs and Arctic Wolves being introduced (not to each other).

    A group of Cheetahs and two Arctic Wolves have finally arrived at Beauval Zoo.
    Their exhibits will be ready for the audience from 14th April.

    Also for your information, from my visit last year they also keep Naked mole-rats and African Wild Dogs in the lion complex.

    It is a good Trogon year so far: Cuban trogon have gone on display in Beauval, so their already good bird list, with Pesquets parrot, C*ck-of-the-rock and Green broadbill among others, gets a further upgrade
