ATLANTA (AP) - A rare possible panda pregnancy was announced by the top official at Zoo Atlanta on Wednesday. "We have some exciting news," zoo president and CEO Dennis Kelly said at a news conference just outside the panda compound.
"We are soon to go on panda baby watch," he said. "They have not successfully mated naturally, but we had a textbook case of artificial insemination last night."
If a birth occurs, it would be only the third giant panda born in the United States. The baby would be the property of China, which loaned the potential parents to Zoo Atlanta.
