Singapore: Lion cub named Simba born via artificial intelligence at a zoo| Oneindia News

The Singapore Zoo has welcomed a lion cub named Simba to its animal kingdom following artificial insemination that officials said on Tuesday was a first for the city-state. It is rare for lions to be conceived through artificial insemination, with the procedure first carried out successfully in 2018 - resulting in two cubs in South Africa. Lion populations in the wild have plummeted more than 40 percent over the past two decades. <br /> <br /> #BabyLionBorn #ArtificiallyCpnceivedLion #SimbaTheLion
