We are currently home to an adult male Chinese goral called Danling who was born in 2011.
Wild populations of Chinese gorals are in decline due to hunting. Here at RZSS, our Chinese goral, Danling, is part of the European Endangered Species Programme (EEP) which ensures a healthy and genetically diverse population.
Like all the animals in our care, Danling is an amazing ambassador for his relatives in the wild and helps hundreds of thousands of people connect with nature every year. They encourage visitors to learn about the threats facing wildlife and the action they can take to help create a world where nature is protected, valued, and loved.
As a wildlife conservation charity, we care for the animals here at the zoo and work to protect species at risk around the world. From providing expertise in genetics and veterinary health, to protecting wild places with local conservation partners, and even restoring threatened species to the wild, we are active where we are needed most.
