Siamangs
Old 01-06-2008

I was wondering if Irian and Suli ( the siamangs who were in the mixed species exhibit with the orangutans) were going back in with the orangutans once Irian's arm is better, does anyone know?
Maybe they could just come out with Pusung as it was Karta who broke Irian's arm in the first place.
Does anyone know how Irian is progressing?

I should be going down to AZ soon to do some work with Irian and Suli, as far as I know both are still in the health centre and not sure what will be happening with them long term. I'll post when I know more (provided it's not confidential).

How long has it been since the siamang's have not been in with the orangutans? Also, is the o-line ever going to be in use again?

The O-line over to the tiger enclosure was never in use.

@Jo: thanks for the update! If the O-line was never in use (unlike the National Zoo in Washington, D.C.) then it was a colossal waste of money.
