Happy to share the news of the first captive-bred GIB chick of 2025!
The egg was laid on February 12 by 4-year-old female (Rewa) after mating with a breeding male (Leo) on February 7 at the Sam center in Rajasthan's Jaisalmer. It was artificially hatched by the Project GIB team.
India, as I often mention, is not just conversing but also restoring its ecosystem.
Congratulations to all those who worked tirelessly to make it possible.

India launched the first successful conservation breeding program for the Critically Endangered Great Indian Bustard. In October 2024, Arambh, the first GIB chick born through Artificial Insemination, marked a historic breakthrough in conservation efforts. #WorldWildlifeDay
