The female rhino calf, which was born on Tuesday, is the first ever to be conceived through artificial insemination. Due to the "friendship-like" relationship of the zoo's adult rhinos, there was no chance for natural breeding. Veterinarians of the Budapest Zoo in co-operation with their colleagues from Germany and Austria used an artificial insemination.
