The future is now. We’re excited to announce the recent birth of the world’s second successfully cloned Przewalski’s horse. This birth offers further hope to bringing genetic diversity back to this endangered species 🐴

The foal, born February 17th to a domestic surrogate mare, is a clone of a male Przewalski’s horse whose DNA was cryopreserved 40 years ago at the San Diego Zoo Wildlife Alliance Biodiversity Bank’s Frozen Zoo. He is the genetic twin of the world’s first cloned Przewalski’s horse, Kurt, who was born in August 2020 from the same stallion’s living cell line.

This breakthrough for conservation is the result of collaborative partnerships with @revive_restore_biodiversity, @viagenpetsandequine and San Diego Zoo Wildlife Alliance. Until this recent birth, cloning had only successfully produced a single individual of any endangered species, making this a remarkable step forward for saving at-risk wildlife around the world. 

This spunky little guy will be moved from his birthplace in Texas to the Safari Park later this year as part of SDZWA’s ongoing efforts to conserve the endangered Przewalski’s horse.
