It was thought the baby elephant had died in his mother's womb when she had difficulties giving birth.
But at 3:27 am Wednesday morning he was born at Taronga Zoo, Sydney.
The Age has the full story.
It's made me feel uplifted after the death of Jazz, and I think it's much more newsworthy than that other bingled story.
I hope the little guy survives.
Everyone with me: awwwwww. Baby elephants are so cute!

I'm SO happy!
ReplyDeleteWhen I found out the baby had died I cried...I had been sleeping with an elephant toy I got from Taronga Zoo and thinking so much about her and her mummy and family.
I was ecstatic when I heard the news this morning.
It's so exciting for Taronga Zoo...now they have 2 babies with one more on the way! Really great stuff for Australia in general, too.
I know - it was so exciting! I cried about the baby's death too.
ReplyDeleteThe other baby elephant is at the Melbourne Zoo.
And yeah, it is a great thing for Australia!
