This lil baby was born at the Pittsburgh zoo this morning. My favorite part from this article is the description of the other elephants’ reactions to the new addition:
“…and we will begin introductions to the rest of the herd immediately,” said Tracy Gray, a zoo spokeswoman. “The other elephants were all very excited and trumpeted repeatedly following the birth.”‘
How cute is that?! Ugh! I can’t stand it! This tiny babe is the 2nd elephant calf born to the zoo within the month! So, a some point like a little over a year ago (as the elephant gestation period is pretty lengthy as I’ll recall…) there was a lot of pachyderm passion goin’ ’round!
The cuteness is off the charts. *raises trunk in excitement*
