White-winged duck transfer to Singapore

 

October 17th 2023 | Earlier this year one of our white-winged ducks moved to Parc Animalier et Botanique de Branfere (France) in preparation for a major transport of waterfowl to Singapore.

More recently our duck was transported to the Mandai Wildlife Group in Singapore and arrived safe and sound. We are proud to participate in EAZA's Ex-situ Programmes, able to exchange endangered specimens in favor of conservation.
