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.
