Comments / pictures

The not-so-tiny infant was born to mum Donna at around 7am, surrounded by the rest of the females in the herd, including her own mum Kaylee, who provided reassurance and support with gentle Trunk nudges and murmurs to 13-year-old Donna as she delivered her calf.

Identified as female by zookeepers at the Bedfordshire zoo
