Prague Zoo has welcomed a second critically endangered Chinese pangolin within two years. The female pangolin, born on July 1st, is thriving under zoo care and could reach 250 grams this week. The breeding success is a significant milestone for the zoo’s conservation efforts. Initially aimed at ensuring their survival and well being, zoo director Miroslav Bobek expressed amazement at the unexpected birth of two pangolin offspring within such a short timeframe.
