Thanks very much folks! I was very lucky indeed. Odd that they are not featured in more zoos; very interesting, attractive, and a great conservation story,

best, Frank

They are not common in zoos, not sure why as they breed very well; the success of the recovery program laid the groundwork for many others, but is overlooked (hard to compete with penguins, pandas and the like it seems!)
