At the end of last year 5 Eastern quolls (Dasyurus viverrinus) were born, they are still in their mothers pouch, this is the first time that this species has bred in Denmark! Source: Instagram of Copenhagen Zoo (19/01/2024)
No, mother is Kumari as reported in the last Instagram video and an article in the local press. But there is another video where the calf is suckling from Kungrao, so I understand where the confusion is coming from.
An Amur Tiger cub has been born! Zoologisk Have København on Instagram: "Kan I holde til endnu en dyreunge? Ja? Jamen så værsgo' da Det er første gang i 9 år, at vi får en tigerunge! Hvilket er super glædeligt, fordi der er efterspørgsel på unger fra lige netop vores tigere i avlsprogrammet for den truede kat. Det er den nye han, der ankom for knapt to år siden, og vores gamle hun, der endelig har fundet melodien. Vi har gemt lidt på nyheden, fordi vi først ville være sikre på, at ungen overlevede. Moren er nemlig både lidt oppe i årene og førstegangsfødende, og det betyder, at der er større risiko for uheld. Men nu er vi ovre de første par kritiske uger og kan med glæde meddele, at ungen er sund og stærk. Ved fødslen vejer sådan en unge kun 700 gram og er blind og helt hjælpeløs, men nu, tre uger senere, er den allerede oppe på 2,5 kg. "
Any new animal facilities in the works or new animal species? What happens at the brown bear facility?
She has been named 'Chin' after a river in Thailand. Zoologisk Have København on Instagram: "Og vi har et navn! Sig hej til ... CHIN! Den lille hunelefant er opkaldt efter en flod i det centrale Thailand, der hedder Tha Chin. Dyrene i ZOO bliver altid navngivet med tanke på, at navnene skal være med til at sætte fokus på dyrenes levesteder i naturen, hvor bestandene mange steder er under pres. Chin er lidt over en uge gammel og stortrives! Hun har en sund nysgerrighed og løber rundt mellem, under og ved siden af benene på sin mor og sine tanter i Elefanthuset, hvor du kan besøge hende hver dag."
hello Zoo copenhagen have started renoveted polar bear facilities( the artic ring) but i dont how renovate and expand the facility. Zoo has also started with building the Chimpanzee outdoor facility. This is good the new animal facilities for the species
After a generous donation, can zoo copenhagen build an outdoor facility for the chimpanzees. Construction starts immediately, and if everything goes according to plan, the outdoor facility will be ready by autumn. Zoo copenhagen have started renoveted polar bear facilities but I dont now how?
Great news! When I visited the zoo, one of the things I liked the least were the poor chimps always locked indoors. The addition of an outdoor area for them is awesome.
The polar bear facility is in the process of being repaired, as the membrane in the water basin was close to leaking. At the same time, we are improving some other small things, but the really big expansion will only be further in the future, as funding from foundations must first be raised.

A Tasmanian wombat joey has started to come out of the pouch. https://www.facebook.com/video.php?v=408134895175951
It needs major expansion, it really is not a good enclosure for the polar bears which is disappointing considering it's only a decade old.
