The baby elephant is still inside her, but zoo reports say Genny C is 'doing fine,' and that apparently the dead baby elephant can stay inside her indefinitely. Her calf died during labor after getting stuck in the birth canal. To make a long story short, an elephant, named Genny C, who was 'artifically inseminated' 22 months ago, went into labor at the zoo last week. Articles about the death of an Asian elephant's calf during labor at my city's zoo have been all over the newspaper lately.
