Dublin zoo is at last building a new website, which will hopefully be better than the previous one, they have also announced that one of their female white rhinos may be pregnant.

Didnt Dublin re-furbish a lot a few years back.

They say they had the first elephant birth in Ireland, but wasn't the first elephant born in Ireland Vishesh at Belfast?

I think it means the ROI, not Northern Ireland...

Are Dublin in a position to hold a bull now?
Or are they going to wait now till the calves are a litlle older perhaps?

The new website is up and running and as far as i can see much better than the previous one

jelle · 28-03-2008, 06:00 AM

I will bring down the house .... (lol) now! Thank goodness that old website is history. It never seemed to contain anything noteworthy and lacked frequent updating.

I suppose the elephant exhibit would look even better with some additional Asian species. What plans are in store for Dublin Zoo? Any new exhibits or species to be presented in the next 1-2 years?

Where can I find their masterplan (I know there is one cause it was written about an old copy of IZN in the middle 90's)?

Any definite news on the rhinos yet?

Apparently about the elephant bull calf that they are holding a naming contest, deadline is April 5th I'm entering.
I also heard too that Dublin is looking for a breeding bull, though i think staff wil wait until Bernhardine and Yasmin start to ovulate again.
