White-trunked coati, koala or sloth: cute young animals from Schönbrunn adorn the zoo's new calendar. At a special price for "Krone" subscribers!

Zoo lovers have been waiting for this all year: zoo photographer Daniel Zupanc has photographed the cute offspring in adorable poses and published the pictures again as a calendar. The calendar features 12 visitor favorites, from koalas to capybaras.

The organ udan offspring is being celebrated as a great breeding success. It is the first offspring of the endangered species in more than 20 years.

A small two-fingered sloth adorns the 2025 cover. In addition to the classic A3 format, the calendar is also available as a practical family planner.

Zupanc explains the message behind his work as follows: "Many species are endangered in the wild and the small wonders are examples of the great successes of our species conservation work". Otherwise, the tiny two-horned chameleon, for example, would not exist. Its parents were confiscated at Vienna Airport (contraband) and brought to the zoo for care.
