I wonder if Xu Shuren, the leader of Xining Zoo is the same man that studied in Norway in 1984/1985? Can you ask about that, and tell him that I would like to get in contact with him. My mobilnumber is: 0047-91870893, my e-mail-adress is: inger@slogedalen.no

Resepcted Sir/Madam,Padmaj naidu Himalayan Zoological Park has been working for the conservation breeding of endangered Himalayan species for the last 25 year and and the park is involved in the global captive breeding for Snow leopards(Uncia uncia).I Shradhanjali Rai is working as Research scholar in the park for the last one year on a project on Conservation breeding of Snow leopards in captivity.
I have read lots of articles regarding the husbandry and rearing of Snow leopard cubs and also papers related to diseases.So after going through your paper what i have found is that the Xining zoo and PNHZPark are facing much similar problems regarding the rearing of cubs among them the main problems are pneumonia ,osteoporosis and enteritis.Since your park is working so hard to save this endangered species can you please suggest me how we can overcome the above mentioned problems.
As you have mentioned to use UV rays to disinfect the holding areas can you please suggest me the schedule of disinfection.Is it good to irradiate the cubs with UV-rays,if yes then from how many days we can start the process?Please kindly write me back and help me to save these beautiful animals.
Hope to get a positive response from your side.
Best wishes,
Shradhnajali Rai,
Padmaja Naidu Himalayan Zoological park,Darjeeling,India.
