| The only paper related to this subject, which does not include pregnancy, is that of Hindle et all. One northern and one southern rhino cow were used in the study. The main urinary steroids in white rhino cows were found to be oestradiol-17 and 20 -DHP. Cyclic patterns for both steroids were ... |

| Blood serum in African rhino. Serum progesterone concentrations in this investigation were found to be reliable indicators of pregnancy in black and white rhinoceroses but the wide range of serum concentrations observed would probably imply limited use in determination of the stage of pregnancy.... |

This non-invasive approach allows accurate monitoring of the reproductive status of animals, as long... |

| A penile massage collection proceeded with two operators kneeling at the rear of the rhino to massage the penis. Rubbing the medial aspects of the rear legs and the stomach always induced let-down of the penis from the sheath so it could be massaged directly. When released from the sheath, the ... |

| Two different water-filled artificial vaginas (AV) were constructed. A water-filled AV similar to a standard domestic animal AV which provides the warmth and pressure needed to induce ejaculation was developed. Briefly, an 18 cm x 50 cm PVC pipe was used as support for two 15 cm latex liners: o... |

| For rectal massage, an operator inserted a plastic-sleeved, lubricated hand through the anal sphincter and then manually massaged the accessory glands through the mucosa of the caudal rectum. The prostate and bulbourethral ogland, which were about 10-15 cm proximally to the anal sphincter, were ... |

Because of this, the electrodes would inter-mittently lose contact with the rectal mucosa and therefore current could not be effectively controlled. The ... |
