DALIAN (CINA) – Due cuccioli di foca comune, lo scorso 4 marzo sono nati al Sunasia Ocean World di Dalian in Cina. La mamma purtroppo può allattarne solo uno e quindi ha decido di abbandonare uno dei cuccioli che ora è stato preso in affidamento dallo zoo che ha disposto l’allattamento artificiale. Ad essere rifiutato è stato il primo tra i due gemellini ad essere nato.
A seguire le foto dei piccoli puibblicate da LaPresse. I due animali pesano rispettivamente 8,8 e 8,2 chili.
