History & character
Arrived in Edinburgh Zoo in 2010 from Beekse-Bergen Safari Park in the Netherlands. Pearl was originally wild-caught and is an older female who has had 9 infants in her lifetime. She is generally laid back and hangs around with Sofie and other females. She is quite observant of the others and keeps out of trouble but can be prone to tantrums.
