ZSL Whipsnade Zoo celebrates arrival of new baby elephant
The miniature elephant was born on Tuesday 16 September at 7.10am to fourth-time mum Azizah in one of the Zoo’s large grassy paddocks. Other members of the herd of ten Asian elephants were nearby, showing their support for Azizah as her labour progressed. Under the elephant breeding programme, nine elephants have been born at ZSL Whipsnade Zoo.
Assistant Curator of Elephants Lee Sambrook said: “It was wonderful to be able to witness a herd birth at ZSL Whipsnade Zoo. We have a great track record with the elephant breeding programme here, but seeing a baby born with all his aunties and uncles around in such a natural environment was an incredible privilege. Elephants are such social animals and you could see that the rest of the herd’s presence was just what Azizah needed to stay calm and do what she needed to do. The team of vets and keepers were standing by and monitoring her development, but it was so fantastic that the birth happened naturally, and with the herd’s help, rather than ours. “
The new-born is already a herd favourite and visitors can see him out and about with his big brothers and sisters in the paddock.
Best Regards
