    is it too much to hope that the fetus somehow survived and is being taken care of? :/

    Interesting blog – and great pictures. Coincidentally, I quit my career as a statistician recently and have gone back to school for a conservation biology degree. Very interested to see you working with NCF folks because I’ve been trying to see if I can work on my thesis with them. Your posts about human-wildlife conflict were heart-breaking. Congrats on the exhibition – it’s a great message.

    It was already dead when the vet cut open the mother. But it was amazing that the fetus actually had its hand covering its mouth.
