Galloway Wildlife Conservation Park Details
Arrival: 7 September 2007
A pair of North American Tree Porcupines has arrived.
Birth: 15 July 2007
A female Lowland Anoa calf has been born. This is one of the smallest of wild cattle species, and is endangered in its native Sulawesi (Indonesia) due to habitat destruction and hunting; only a few thousand are left in the wild. This birth is therefore good news for the species, and the European breeding programme (EEP).
Birth: 9 June 2007
A Red Panda cub has been born. Good news for this species which is endangered by habitat destruction.
Birth: March 2007
Three Asian Short Clawed Otter cubs have been born, the first for the Park.
Notes:
Where possible, the dates given are for the event itself, but some zoos do not make this information available, when the date of announcement is used instead.
Seasons: Winter = Jan - Mar, Spring = Apr - Jun, Summer = Jul - Sept, Autumn = Oct - Dec.
