zola the african elephant at colchester zoo baby is due any day from now soo keep wacthing the website for more informationm: however her first birth was a still birth so this time round we hope she can still have a healthy baby this time

i hope it is a female !
 
Is there any news on whether Zola has given birth yet?? She was due any day about 2 weeks ago but could this be down to a miscalculation of when she got pregnant. With her last calf being stillborn this surely must be a worrying time for her keepers
 
No birth yet, according to the zoo`s homepage. I am hoping the best... because of Zola`s history, I guess it`s a very risky birth.
 
Is she the female that started to give birth and then 'shut down' for some reason so the calf was later stillborn? I believe she is one of Colchester's original two females(Zola & Tanya) with Opal and Rosa (& Tembo) being later acquired from Chipperfields.

Which is the one that hasn't bred at all so far?:confused:
 
Opal is the only female that has not bred so far. I think Zola was the female that shut down her labour
 
yup thats right opal has not breed and zola did shut down her labour sadly hopefully she will give birht soon and opal will have a baby in the near furtre ! what dose any one want the new calf sex to be and do you think the zoo should get more elephants as rosa hassed passed on and kito and jambo and moving very soon !
