Jaguar Unexpectedly Gives Birth To Cubs At Elmwood Park Zoo
NORRISTOWN, Pa. (CBS) —The Elmwood Park Zoo announced that their female jaguar, Inka, has given birth to two cubs.
Zoo officials say the unexpected birth happened in the early morning hours of January 24.
They say the cubs look great and Inka is a very attentive mother, so attentive in fact, that it took nearly a week before the staff was able to separate her in order to examine the cubs.
The zoo says its male jaguar, Zean, is the father. Inka and Zean were directly introduced in October.
Officials say the first day they were introduced was October 12, and they began to show signs of aggression toward each other on Oct. 14, which also coincided with the end of Inka’s cycle, so they were separated again.
The chances for a successful conception were slim, which is why the zoo says the birth came as a surprise.
