Edinburgh Zoo panda mating FAIL: No Sunshine for Sweetie


nma.tv Edinburgh Zoo's giant pandas have failed to mate this year despite the best efforts of the Scottish zoo to encourage them to procreate, dashing hopes that a baby panda would be born this year. Sweetie and her male mate Sunshine arrived in Scotland from China last December and had been kept in separate enclosures until this week, when experts decided the time to mate had arrived. Female pandas ovulate once a year, with only a 36-hour period in which they can get conceive. Despite showing an interest in each other, the duo failed to take advantage of their short 'window of opportunity.' Now Sunshine will have to wait another year to take his chance. What will zoo officials do to encourage them to mate next year?

Edinburgh zoo : Penguins : Gentoo, King, Rockhoppers


At 14:15 the penguins parade starts (weather permitting) Gentoo penguins (Pygoscelis papua) are medium-sized penguins, about 76 cm in height and weighing an average of 5 Kg (11 lbs). They have the characteristic grey back and white belly of all penguin species with a broad white band stretching across the head from eye to eye...for more information www.edinburghzoo.org.uk All penguin species are found in the southern hemisphere. Gentoos can be found in the Falklands, South Georgia, Kerguelen, Marion, Macquarie and other remote islands and the Antarctic peninsula. King penguins were one of the very first species to be kept at Edinburgh Zoo. They were first bred at the Zoo in 1919, which was the first captive breeding of this species anywhere in the world. For these reasons, a king penguin can be seen on the Zoo's logo and on the Royal Zoological Society of Scotland's crest...for more information www.edinburghzoo.org.uk Rockhopper penguins (Eudyptes moseleyi) are native to Argentina, Australia, Chile, the Falkland Islands, and New Zealand. They are the smallest of the crested species of penguins. They have striking yellow crests on their heads and distinctive red eyes. Rockhopper penguins are noisy and quarrelsome, and get their name from their ability to hop from rock to rock. They use a series of bounds with both feet together to climb steep rock faces and then reach their rocky nesting sites by hopping over the surrounding rocks. They breed in colonies and feed on krill <b>...</b>

Pandas Prepare For Life In Edinburgh Zoo


Edinburgh Zoo is about to take delivery of two of the rarest animals on the planet - a pair of giant pandas on loan from the Chinese government. Sunshine and Sweetie - Yangguang and Tian Tian in Chinese - are both seven-years-old. They have grown up together in the misty mountains of southwest China. On Sunday they will embark on a 5000 mile journey to Scotland, where they will become star exhibits at the Edinburgh Zoo. The Royal Zoological Society of Scotland will pay more than £600000 a year for the loan of the pandas, plus another £70000 on imported bamboo. The pair eat 18000kg of the plant every year. Sunshine and Sweetie will fly to the UK on a specially fitted Fedex cargo plane, along with their "nanny" Xie Hao.

Edinburgh Zoo Pandas Ready to Mate


For more news and videos visit ➡ ‪english.ntdtv.com‬ Follow us on Twitter ➡ ‪http Add us on Facebook ➡ ‪on.fb.me UK's giant pandas at Edinburgh Zoo are ready to mate. It's a special occasion as female pandas ovulate just once a year. The only pandas in the UK have now been brought together for the first time as the female has been judged ready to mate. [Darren McGary, Head of Animals at Edinburgh Zoo]: "I think the signs are very good, the female wasn't showing any aggression towards the male, she was standing for him, she was showing off her back end, so she was quite excited, she was lying down in position, he came in he wasn't aggressive towards her at all he has very gentle with her, he has been muzzling around her neck, in the right position, so everything was looking really good there certainly wasn't any negative signs there at all which is really positive for us." The zookeepers opened a so-called love tunnel between male Yang Guang and female Tian Tian's enclosures on Tuesday after tests showed she had ovulated. Female pandas ovulate just once a year, giving a window of 36 hours in which they can get pregnant. The panda conception process is complicated. [Darren McGary, Head of Animals at Edinburgh Zoo]: "They can have single babies or they can have twins. We wouldn't know that she was pregnant probably until later on in the summer, maybe about May/June we'll get signs then that she might be pregnant and then we wouldn't expect a baby panda until later in the <b>...</b>

Pandas At Edinburgh Zoo Meet Their Fans


Scotland's giant pandas, the first to live in the UK for 17 years, have met their adoring public for the first time. Tian Tian and Yang Guang, also known as Sweetie and Sunshine, went on show to the general public at Edinburgh Zoo on Friday morning and they did not disappoint their fans. Demand for tickets has been so high that numbers were limited, with 600 pre-booked visitors finally getting the chance to see them in their specially-built enclosures. Groups of 50 visitors at a time were allowed into the panda viewing areas for up to 30 minutes in order to keep the disturbance of the animals to a minimum. Tian Tian and Yang Guang seemed totally unaffected by all the fuss.

The Zoo Trip Edinburgh Scotland: Funny Animals, Friends, Elephants, Polar Bears & Owls


www.wcptv.biz Title of Video: The Zoo Trip Edinburgh Scotland: Funny Animals, Friends, Elephants, Polar Bears & Owls I put together this short at the Zoo video for fun with friends while we want on a day trip to Edinburgh Zoo. I added a serpia effect to the video to create the illusion of an older video which I liked. This is simply a funny animals video. Produced by Alan Taylor & Sean Imrie Length: 2:41 Edinburgh Zoo is a zoological park based in Edinburgh, Scotland. It is a non profit organization concerned with the conservation of hundreds of species of animals. It used to be called the Scottish National Zoological Park. It's aim is to raise the public's awareness of living animals in our world and conserve those which are threatened with exstinction. The Zoo Edinburgh is situated on the top of Costorphine Hill and was built in 1913. Annually, the zoo receives over 600000 visitors which means it's one of Scotland's biggest attraction aside from Edinburgh Castle taking first place. Currently, the zoo is the only one anywhere in the UK to have koalas and be able to breed penguins. One of the most famous and funny stuff at the Zoo Park Zoos is the Penguin Parade, which started in 1950 with the escape of the penguins. Now, they perform the parade everyday, depending of course if they decide to leave their enclosure; animals funny sometimes. Funny videos feature on the Zoo's website called Panguin Cam, check it out. Another addition to Edinburgh Zoo was the Highland <b>...</b>

Edinburgh Pandas - PANDAmonium at Edinburgh Zoo


Went to see the Pandas at Edinburgh Zoo.... took my video camera with me! Was went to have captions but didn't upload to youtube, musn't have been in frame. Added them through annotations though! Basically Edinburgh has gone crazy for the arrival of the Pandas 'Sunshine' and 'Sweetie' from China. They got bagpiped off the plane. I think that says it all. So we went to see them, and to be fair, they are pretty great. Really big. They didn't do to much to be honest though, apparently they sleep for about 60% of the day. A life style i know many would enjoy... Couldn't resist adding some captions... and can't forget the other animals too.

Ants Show Strong-Arm Tactics at Edinburgh Zoo


For more news visit ☛ english.ntdtv.com Follow us on Twitter ☛ http Follow us on Facebook ☛ me.lt The arrival of two giant pandas at Edinburgh Zoo is grabbing all the media attention but some of the zoos smallest inhabitants are also making their first public appearance. Lets take a look at their leafcutter ants. Visitors to Edinburgh Zoo are being treated to unusual displays of strength from a colony of 250000 leafcutter ants. The atta cephalotes ant is strong enough to bite through leather and carry 20 times its own body weight. They can be seen carrying their swag across a dangling rope connecting their food supply and nest tank. Senior animal presenter Gareth Bennett has looked after the colony since it arrived from the Caribbean 18 months ago. [Gareth Bennett, Senior Animal Presenter]: "It arrived in a very, very small yogurt pot with maybe one queen and a couple of hundred workers and foragers." The ants do not eat their fodder but use it to cultivate a fungus as their only source of food. [Gareth Bennett, Senior Animal Presenter]: "Only ten percent of captive colonies will get to the stage that we have on display here. The real trick is that at the early stages you must look after the fungus production, that's key to the whole thing. If you look after the fungus the ants tend to look after themselves." The ants are avid recyclers and the only other species, apart from humans, which actively farm their food. [Gareth Bennett, Senior Animal Presenter]: "They also <b>...</b>
