Vigo and Kumba – Isle of Wight Zoo

At 5 year old,  brothers Vigo and Kumba joined Isle of Wight Zoo in May 2019. After a very difficult background in a travelling cirucs they were rescued by AAP Animal Advocacy and Protection Primadomus where they remained in purpose built facilities whilst a forever home was sought.

Both boys were castrated before they turned one which has meant that they have not developed manes; the other result has been that they have grown incredibly large!

Both brothers are incredibly relaxed and clearly enjoying life at the zoo; they will either be seen playing amongst their bamboo, rolling their jungle ball around or taking a well earned nap.
