Taronga Zoo Sydney's Asian elephants Tang Mo and Pak Boon to relocate to South Australia in mid-2025, replaced by a Greater One-horned Rhino.

Taronga Zoo Sydney's Asian elephants Tang Mo and Pak Boon, who have resided at the park since 2006, are set to relocate to South Australia in mid-2025 to join a larger herd. Their departure follows a successful breeding program that expanded across multiple zoos. The zoo will replace the elephants with a two-year-old Greater One-horned Rhino. Asian elephants are endangered, with fewer than 50,000 remaining in the wild.
