Safari Park 50th Milestone 43

MILESTONE 43

VETERINARY EXCELLENCE

Veterinarians conducted a successful emergency C-section after female gorilla Imani was showing signs of distress while giving birth to her first infant, Joanne. After a long and difficult labor, Joanne was having trouble breathing because she had a collapsed lung and pneumonia. The fragile infant stayed at the veterinary hospital for treatment and round-the-clock care, and the veterinarians were hopeful about her recovery. Twelve days after being born, Joanne was strong enough to reunite with Imani, who quickly resumed her role as mother.
