Zum Thema Nashorn: leider gibt es davon auf der Erde nicht mehr so viele. Sie gehören zu den vom Aussterben bedrohten Tierarten. Der Zoo von Cincinnati tut eine Unmenge, um sich um diese Tiere zu bemühen. Und nun kommt die offizielle Geburts"annonce" zu Emi´s Baby: |
|
The Cincinnati Zoo & Botanical Garden proudly announces that Emi, a critically endangered Sumatran rhinoceros, today, Friday, July 30, became the first Sumatran rhino in history to produce two calves in captivity. Emi delivered a healthy female calf at 12:51 p.m. in her indoor stall.
Emi became restless early Thursday morning and started contractions at 12:04 p.m., Friday. Soon after delivery at 12:51 p.m., Emi began licking the calf. The calf first attempted to stand at 1:06 p.m. Emi and her calf will remain inside for the next few weeks to allow privacy during this bonding time. |

Emi and her calf
are doing great. Beginning at 10 a.m. Saturday, visitors can get their
first glimpse of mom and the new baby on the monitors in the public exhibit
at the Zoo’s Center for Conservation & Research of Endangered
Wildlife (CREW) and through Rhino Cam. The Rhino Cam, courtesy of Time
Warner Cable, is a Web-controllable video camera accessible 24-hours-a-day
through the Zoo’s Website at www.cincinnatizoo.org. Viewing hours
are subject to change. |
In September of 2001, Emi gave birth to a healthy 72.6 pound calf named, Andalas. This was the first time in 112 years that a Sumatran rhinoceros successfully reproduced in captivity. Good news like this comes at a critical time in the conservation of Sumatran rhinos. Today less than 300 survive in the wild and only eight in captivity. Emi and the Cincinnati Zoo’s male, Ipuh are on loan from the Indonesian government and are the only successfully captive breeding pair in the world. Only two other Sumatran rhinos are in the United States. Andalas currently resides at the Los Angeles Zoo and a fourth rhino, an older female, resides at the Bronx Zoo. |

Emi had a history of early pregnancy loss before carrying her first full-term calf. During that pregnancy, Emi was prescribed a daily dose of oral progesterone. None was administered throughout this pregnancy.
