Er Shun artificially inseminated at the Calgary Zoo
CALGARY, April 3, 2019 /CNW/ - The Calgary Zoo hopes to have introduced more giant pandas back into the world after having artificially inseminated Er Shun yesterday at 12:17 p.m.
Back in mid-March, the Calgary Zoo announced that Er Shun had entered her breeding cycle. The animal care team has been monitoring her hormone levels ever since and waiting for the precise time to artificially inseminate her with the help of a specialist from China. Pandas only ovulate for up to three days out of the year.
