Stingrays 'female' spontaneously gives birth without mating
During a shocking development, an 11-year-old stingray gave birth to healthy offspring despite no contact with males for more than 9 years.
However, this 'virginity' is not a miracle. It is the result of a human process called parthenogenesis.
The aquarium now has an adorable baby eagle stingray named Ani, 4 weeks old.
Virginity is not a normal reproduction for animals and can endanger them in the future.
Ani, the short name of Anakin, was named after Anakin Skywalker by the staff of the Sea Life Aquarium in Sydney, Australia, or a fatherless figure.
Parthenogenesis means a virgin in Latin, also occurs in many other types, but not common, according to the aquarium's announcement.
Ani was born on July 26 and the aquarium staff said she was very healthy, swimming and eating well. It shows the habits of a healthy and happy young eagle ray. He likes to eat mussels and sardines fillets.
Although virginity is a rare and scientifically interesting phenomenon, it is not a normal reproduction for animals and can endanger them in the future. It creates genetic diversity in young animals and makes them less tolerant of changes in the world.
Ani has not been shown on the aquarium. Employees are actively monitoring its development process.
