"The birth occurred Saturday afternoon and [Gizmo] was back to eating and moving about normally almost immediately" said Donald Gow, the zoo's senior keeper for primates and hoofstock
"The fungus was known to infect and potentially kill both the other major groups of amphibians, but we did not know if it definitively could infect caecilians in the wild, and whether it could potentially also kill them" says Museum zoologist and lead researcher David Gower
Douglas Richardson, Head of Living Collections at Highland Wildlife Park said: "It was always the intention to move the wolverine from the zoo to the Highland Wildlife Park as we specialise in cold weather adapted animals."
