Expanded Zoo Attraction: Unique growth at Karlsruhe Zoo captivates visitors
The Karlsruhe Zoo is excited to announce the arrival of a unique newcomer - a Bengal slow loris named Little Paul. After completing its quarantine period, Little Paul is now moving into its enclosure, ready to meet its new home and the visitors who can't wait to catch a glimpse of this adorable primate.
Little Paul, with its big, captivating eyes, has already been winning over visitors with its charm. Its arrival has caused quite the stir among zoo-goers, who are eager to see this nocturnal, tree-dwelling creature in action.
Hailing from Hong Kong, Little Paul was seized from a private keeper, despite it being forbidden. Now, the enclosure that Little Paul will be living in is getting a special addition, as it prepares to welcome its new inhabitant.
As a member of the slow loris group, Little Paul is equipped with paws designed to expertly cling to branches. Interestingly, these creatures can produce a toxic secretion from an underarm gland when mixed with saliva, serving as a defence mechanism.
Little Paul is not alone in its new home. It will be sharing its enclosure with another animal named Kate. The possibility of offspring from this pairing is an exciting prospect for the zoo, contributing to the conservation efforts for this fascinating species.
The zoo shared the news of Little Paul's arrival on its Facebook page, along with a delightful picture of the little Bengal slow loris. For those interested in updates about Little Paul, we recommend checking the zoo's official website or their social media channels directly for the most current and detailed information.
Welcome, Little Paul, to your new home at Karlsruhe Zoo! We can't wait to see you explore your new surroundings and make memories with our visitors.
The new arrival, Little Paul, is settling into its new home-and-garden, ready to embark on a new living lifestyle amidst the lush enclosures of the Karlsruhe Zoo. As Little Paul and its fellow enclosure inhabitant, Kate, prepare to start their life together, the hopes are high for potential offspring, contributing to the conservation of their intriguing species.
