I did a search on http://www.isis.org but couldn't find your source. Could you add a link, so we can look into your question.

Thanks

Willem

Hi Irek,

Are you allowed to share information about the two northern white females at DK when you know if the AI has been successful or not? Or do you have to keep quiet until there is an official press release or something?

Just wondering...

Best wishes,

Tom

On the website of Granby Zoo:
http://www.zoodegranby.co..._rhinosback.htm
the arrival of two white rhino males is mentioned. They are called 'KC' and 'Tony', both born in White Oak, Yulee. According to the studbook, these animals (#1440 and 1412) were born to parents imported from Kruger National Park. None of these would be a hybrid.

Hello
So it is a mistake:( I hoped new hybrid appear. I can't tell anything about Najin and Fatu because I know nothing, we are collecting samples and waiting.
Best regards
Irek
