First Baby Great Indian Bustard Chick Born via Artificial Insemination
In a groundbreaking conservation achievement, a baby great Indian bustard was born through artificial insemination at the Sudasari Great Indian Bustard Breeding Centre in Rajasthan. This marks the first successful artificial breeding of this critically endangered species. The male bustard, Suda, was trained for eight months to produce sperm, which was used to inseminate a female named Tony. The chick’s birth brings hope for the survival of this species, which is severely threatened by habitat loss and hunting. The successful use of AI offers new possibilities for breeding and conservation efforts for the great Indian bustard.
