Hyenas fail to breed, zoo discovers both are male
SAPPORO , Japan, Oct. 2 (UPI) --The Maruyama Zoo in Japan said zookeepers discovered repeated attempts to breed their two spotted hyenas were doomed from the start -- both animals are males.
The zoo in Sapporo said the hyenas, Kamutori and Kami, were born to different sets of parents at the Daejeon Zoo in South Korea in 2008 and 2009 and they were given to Maruyama in 2010 as a gift celebrating the sister city relationship between Sapporo and Daejeon.
