Article Synopsis
- The study tested the effectiveness of the GnRH-agonist deslorelin in inducing estrus in gray wolves as a method to improve genetic exchange in captive endangered species.
- Two out of five female wolves implanted with deslorelin successfully mated, with some giving birth to healthy puppies.
- Results showed that while deslorelin can induce estrus, the timing of ovulation and individual responses vary, indicating further research is needed to refine the process for successful artificial insemination.
