Out of the Ice Age and into the Icebox: Przewalski's Horses Emerge from Frost a Second Time.
- Authors
Burton, Kristyn
- Abstract
The article discusses Little Kurt, a clone of the British-born Nikolay Przewalski's stallion Kuporovic, born on August 6, 2020, who represents the first and only cloned Przewalski's horse in the world. He will stand at the San Diego Zoo Safari Park in California as a cornerstone of the species. Dr. Kurt Benirschke had made it a mission to preserve the vanishing animals around him, and this little horse is the culmination of a combined effort to save a dying species.
