  • This adorable calf has made history after becoming the first ever Indian rhino to be born using artificial insemination. Akuti, a seven-year-old Greater One Horned Indian Rhinoceros, gave birth at approximately 12.30am on Tuesday April 23. According to delighted zoo staff, it is the first ever birth of the species by induced ovulation and artificial insemination. Amazingly, the youngster appears to be in excellent health and these adorable images capture the scientific marvel taking its first ever steps as it wobbles around its enclosure. According to zoo officials, natural breeding wasn't working, so an expert team of animal reproductive specialists from the South East Zoo Alliance for Reproduction and Conservation, which focuses on endangered species, were brought in to help the birth along. The crew artificially collected semen from the father, Suru, on Jan. 8, 2018. The following day they artificially inseminated the mother. Once the team of experts had confirmed that Akuti was pregnant, she was trained to receive regular ultrasound examinations. This helped the staff monitor the development of the baby. Because the exact date of conception was known, they were able to accurately estimate the birth date. Zoo Spokesperson Ron Magill said: “With the artificial insemination, we had to first collect the semen from the male. Once that was done, we had to immobilize the female so that there would be no danger to the veterinarians who then carefully used an instrument that is inserted vaginally and placed up against the cervix where the semen is then deposited,” he said. “The challenge is that it has to be timed precisely to her ovulation which was also induced. As it turned out, our timing was perfect.”. 25 Apr 2019 Pictured: Historic Indian rhino born using artificial insemination at Zoo Miami.

  • A lioness has killed the father of her three cups at an American zoo. The incident happened in front of one of their three-year-old cubs in the outdoor yard of the enclosure at Indianapolis zoo. In a statement released today the zoo confirmed the incident happened last week and revealed the 10-year-old male lion died after the female lion Zuri got involved in a confrontation with him. The statement from the zoo explained: ‘Zoo personnel made every effort to separate the lions, but Zuri held Nyack by the neck until he stopped moving.’ A necropsy on Nyack later revealed he died of suffocation from injuries to the neck. The lion pair lived together at the Indianapolis Zoo for eight years and had three cubs. Staff logs noted no previous examples of aggression between Zuri and Nyack, zoo officials said. Zoo staff are now investigating the incident, which happened on Monday 15 October before the zoo opened. ‘We know many people loved visiting Nyack. He was a magnificent male lion and left his legacy in his three cubs,’ the zoo said in a statement. 22 Oct 2018 Pictured: A 10-year-old male lion (Nyack) was killed by the mother (Zuri) of his three cubs at Indianapolis zoo on 15 October, 2018, it has emerged.

  • Meet the BingwaBunch - a record-breaking litter of cheetah cubs who have just turned one. The five girls and four boys are named for the numbers one through eight in Swahili: Moja, Mbili, Tatu, Nne, Tano, Sita, Saba, and Nane. Born on November 26, 2017, the eight cubs were the largest litter ever raised by a cheetah in an American Zoo. The average litter size is just three. The eight cubs, who are now almost fully grown, are known as the BingwaBunch after their adoring mother Bingwa, while their father is called Jason. Despite the daunting task of raising eight boisterous cubs, Bingwa and Jason have excelled as parents, and, along with the help of keepers at Saint Louis Zoo, they have managed to raise a healthy set of octuplets. The cubs now spend their days playing in their stunning enclosure as the lucky staff has the pleasure of witnessing their personalities emerge.

  • Meet the BingwaBunch - a record-breaking litter of cheetah cubs who have just turned one. The five girls and four boys are named for the numbers one through eight in Swahili: Moja, Mbili, Tatu, Nne, Tano, Sita, Saba, and Nane. Born on November 26, 2017, the eight cubs were the largest litter ever raised by a cheetah in an American Zoo. The average litter size is just three. The eight cubs, who are now almost fully grown, are known as the BingwaBunch after their adoring mother Bingwa, while their father is called Jason. Despite the daunting task of raising eight boisterous cubs, Bingwa and Jason have excelled as parents, and, along with the help of keepers at Saint Louis Zoo, they have managed to raise a healthy set of octuplets. The cubs now spend their days playing in their stunning enclosure as the lucky staff has the pleasure of witnessing their personalities emerge.

  • Meet the BingwaBunch - a record-breaking litter of cheetah cubs who have just turned one. The five girls and four boys are named for the numbers one through eight in Swahili: Moja, Mbili, Tatu, Nne, Tano, Sita, Saba, and Nane. Born on November 26, 2017, the eight cubs were the largest litter ever raised by a cheetah in an American Zoo. The average litter size is just three. The eight cubs, who are now almost fully grown, are known as the BingwaBunch after their adoring mother Bingwa, while their father is called Jason. Despite the daunting task of raising eight boisterous cubs, Bingwa and Jason have excelled as parents, and, along with the help of keepers at Saint Louis Zoo, they have managed to raise a healthy set of octuplets. The cubs now spend their days playing in their stunning enclosure as the lucky staff has the pleasure of witnessing their personalities emerge. Steve Bircher, Curator of Mammals, said: "We have a couple that might be bolder than others with the way they play with their enrichment or the way they chase one and other. We are starting to see these difference in personalities. Just like us, they have distinct personalities."

  • This is the adorable moment a baby tree kangaroo pokes its head out of its mother's pouch for the first time. The endangered tree kangaroo was born at Zoo Miami in October after a 44 day gestation period. However, like most marsupials, most of its development occurred during the pouch and it has only just begun to poke its head out as it develops beyond its "embryonic state". According to staff, the young animal will stay in the pouch to develop for the next several months before venturing away from its mom. It will not be totally weaned until it is around a year old, the zoo said. Zookeepers have not yet been able to confirm the baby's gender. Matchie's tree kangaroos are native to Papua New Guinea, where they live at high elevations and spend most of their time in trees. 30 May 2019 Pictured: Baby tree kangaroo born at Zoo Miami.

  • This is the moment a huge polar is taken for his first CT scan and a semen extraction on a bulldozer. Specialist staff at the Brookfield Zoo in Illinois, came up with the ingenious idea of carrying Hudson, a 12-year-old polar, to the operating room on the front a construction vehicle. Due to the creatures' hulking size past scans had been impossible as the previous equipment was not strong enough to hold his weight. The procedure was carried out so veterinary staff from the Chicago Zoological Society, could take semen samples, to help with artificial insemination, and to give the 1,000 beast a general check-up. Also, by giving the massive creature a CT scan, zoologist were able to get a rare insight into the brain of a polar bear. The scans are very rare as it is so hard to carry them out on such large animals. But luckily, last year the Illinois zoo was awarded a grant that allowed it to fortify the scanning machine, upgrading its weight limit to 2,200lbs, it was previously just 600lbs. Dr Michael Adkesson, vice president of clinical medicine for the Chicago Zoological Society, said: "Being able to get baseline CT images on a polar bear is a significant accomplishment to advance the medical well-being for the species under managed care. It allows us to assess Hudson’s joints, internal organs and overall health. The images provide us with a reference to monitor his health over time and can also be used to compare to other polar bears in the future if needed.". 26 Apr 2019 Pictured: Hudson undergoing CT scan after being carried on a bulldozer.

Dr Michael Adkesson, vice president of clinical medicine for the Chicago Zoological Society, said: "Being able to get baseline CT images on a polar bear is a significant accomplishment to advance the medical well-being for the species under managed care. It allows us to assess Hudson’s joints, internal organs and overall health. The images provide us with a reference to monitor his health over time and can also be used to compare to other polar bears in the future if needed.". 26 Apr 2019 Pictured: Hudson undergoing CT scan after being carried on a bulldozer.

  • This is the moment a huge polar is taken for his first CT scan and a semen extraction on a bulldozer. Specialist staff at the Brookfield Zoo in Illinois, came up with the ingenious idea of carrying Hudson, a 12-year-old polar, to the operating room on the front a construction vehicle. Due to the creatures' hulking size past scans had been impossible as the previous equipment was not strong enough to hold his weight. The procedure was carried out so veterinary staff from the Chicago Zoological Society, could take semen samples, to help with artificial insemination, and to give the 1,000 beast a general check-up. Also, by giving the massive creature a CT scan, zoologist were able to get a rare insight into the brain of a polar bear.

  • May 30, 2017 - Bristol, Bristol, UK - Bristol, UK. Gorilla mum TOUNI with baby yet to be named. Keepers at Bristol Zoo Gardens have revealed that their new baby gorilla is a girl. The little Western lowland gorilla was born in the early hours of Saturday, April 22nd to first-time mum Touni and silverback gorilla dad, Jock. Touni has been at the Zoo since September 2015 after coming from La Vallée des Singes zoo in France, as a breeding partner for Jock. The bright-eyed five week old baby is getting stronger every day and now needs a name. Bristol Zoo’s curator of mammals, Lynsey Bugg, said: “Our little lowland gorilla is doing incredibly well - developing exactly as she should, feeding well and putting on plenty of weight. Now we would like to ask the public to help us choose a name for her.”  The Zoo is asking members of the public to vote on their favourite from a choice of three names, all inspired by the name ‘Daisy’. She added: “We would like to name her in memory of the baby daughter of one of our colleagues who was born four years ago on the same day as the baby gorilla. Daisy was stillborn and we thought this would be a lovely tribute to her.” Keepers have chosen a shortlist of names for the baby gorilla – Fleur, Ayana and Undama. Fleur is French for flower, chosen because Touni is French. Ayana means ‘pretty flower’ in Ethiopian, and Undama means ‘beautiful flower’ in Swahili. Voting will open later today (Tuesday 30 May) on the Bristol Zoo Facebook page. After Daisy was born, her parents, who are both members of staff at Bristol Zoo, received support from SANDS (the stillborn and neonatal death charity). For more information about SANDS, visit www.sands.org.uk/ or phone 0808 164 3331. The new baby takes the number of gorillas living at Bristol Zoo to eight. The refurbished and extended Gorilla House opened in 2013 and is able to accommodate up to 10 gorillas in a state-of-the-a
