The motion
That this House celebrates the recent addition of two seven-month-old capybaras, yet to be named, to Edinburgh Zoo; recognizes the work of Edinburgh Zoo towards conservation, education and the promotion of biodiversity; commends the outstanding conservation efforts of the Royal Zoological Society of Scotland (RZSS), who run Edinburgh Zoo, to reverse the decline of at least 50 endangered species by 2030; hopes the capybaras' addition will increase awareness of the pioneering work carried out by the RZSS at Edinburgh Zoo; and wishes all the best for their zookeepers, the entire Edinburgh Zoo Community and the two siblings in their new habitat.
