Abstract: |
In August 2020, an adult female Chinese pangolin (Manis pentadactyla) was pregnant, and gave birth to inanimate twins after 11 weeks of gestation, which was rescued by Guangdong Wildlife Monitoring and Rescue Center. The levels of estradiol, testosterone, luteinizing hormone, follicle stimulating hormone, progesterone and prolactin in the feces of female pangolin were determined by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay. The results showed that estradiol levels peaked at 1050.14 pmol/L after mating seven weeks; luteinizing hormone levels peaked at 53.95 mIU/mL after mating four weeks; follicle stimulating hormone levels peaked at 26.08 mIU/mL after mating five weeks; the progesterone content reached the peak at 22.57ng/mL after mating two weeks and the volatility decreased; testosterone levels have been fluctuated, no significant different at before and after mating; prolactin reached its lowest point on the day of abortion (797.15 mIU/L). The stillbirth had well differentiated, and the morphological measurements showed that their weights were 25.4 g and 18.3 g, and their total lengths were 15.8 cm and 13.6 cm, respectively. Head, trunk, tail and limbs all morphological, with scales covering excepted head and parts of limbs. The claws bent and soft. Their eyes hypoplasia, lips and tongue well developed. The ribs and bowel shape clearly seen. They were identified as fraternal twins using microsatellite marker technology. This case provides reference materials for both the developmental biology and artificial breeding of Chinese pangolins. |
