THIS really is miraculous!!! When in the wild if twins are born, most often the "weaker" is left behind by "family". Not only are these births a miracle BUT the miracle occurred within this particular Zoo family where medical care by vets and elephant care team gave their hearts, their time and diligence as needed. KUDOS with heartfelt thanks to all
Usually female elephants only reject or kill the babies if they're in captivity. In the wild, the mother will seek out another recent mother in her herd to feed and protect the baby. If a baby elephant cries, the others will touch it and comfort it. It is highly unusual for an elephant to abandon or kill a baby, even if she can't take care of it she'll still stay with it. Not to mention elephants are very serious about their dead, having nearly religious-like behavior around the deceased. There was one elephant mother in captivity, she was so stressed out by her first ever pregnancy and birth that she did kill the newborn before the zoo keepers could stop her. That situation is even rarer than twin elephants.
@@WaryJester Yes, thank you for correcting. Elephants take care of each other. It's very rare to abandon a baby when many other females would be happy to "adopt" the unwanted or unable-to-care-for baby.
not how it works with elephants. and that would still be their family lol. if a human abandons their baby (give up for adoption) that's still technically their child...
Elephant babies are just a whole other level of cute! Those tiny trunks and fuzzy baby hair they're just adorable. I hope the babies and mama will continue to thrive and be healthy. 🐘🐘🐘♥️
True! We just visited them this week and they truly are such a sweet pair. The two in SL are apparently the first ever twin baby elephants born in the world- atleast recorded. About 1.5yrs old now and naughty as ever!!!😄🥰
🐘🐘TWINS!!! 🐘🐘🤯🤯 WOW, this is Amazing! Especially two healthy babies!!! I think we need to congratulate Momma Mali for carrying 450+ lbs of babies for over a year? (Almost 2 years if I'm not mistaken? ) 🙏🏼🙏🏽🙏🏿 Praying for continued good health for Mom and babies, and for the excellent care the Staff have provided! ♥️♥️♥️
@@laurinnnn Neither the time or place for such a comment. You apparently have no proper understanding of why less than 1% of abortions are carried out during the 3rd trimester.
@@heathermatthews1323 Oh I heard the excuse of why they are made. Actually several excuses. How convenient that they came up with the excuses after the public caught on to what was going on. Have you ever read up on organ harvesting. Look into it! Big money! Maybe you need to have a better understanding of what’s going on.
Mai and Doc should be so proud that they have brought two baby elephants into the world. It is so wonderful that the Rosamond Gifford Zoo was able to help the weaker baby elephant. May the twins and the other elephants thrive in the years to come.
Oh my goodness gracious they are so cute this is what I love to see animals being moms and dads to their loved ones. These two Asian elephants are adorable. Congratulations Mama on your adorable twin baby elephants
It's worth admiring. What lovely trunk and those big eyes trying to explore this world. Thanks to all the team members involved in caring for them. May God bless them with good food and health.
Aww, they're so cute and adorable. I only watch and read the story in the description and feel so happy. Can't imagine how excited the zoo staffs feel that they actually care for them. 🐘🐘
Amazing! Never in my life would I believed twin elephant calves being born. I’m so happy they’re both doing well. I hope they grow up to be big and healthy. ❤❤
@@catherinebreitfeller669 If this makes you happy I have a TH-cam video that will add to that happiness if you watch James Sparkmans dragon joke about Christmas I’m willing to bet it will make you laugh Maybe you can show your neighbors and friends and family while you’re at
Thanks! I thought we'd never know their birthplace, and a search was needed to find it. Now we all know what city and state to visit to see their miracle twins!😮
Ces petits éléphanteaux sont si mignons et semblent si vulnérables à la fois. Et leurs yeux, ce regard 🥰. Ils sont adorables dans leur démarche encore incertaine et leur allure de vrais bébés ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
They are so fuzzy! almost baby Mammoths'! I hope the little dude is helped to be as healthy as his brother... & they both live long & happy lives. peace
Couldn't be happier to see this. Sweet little angels
They are sooo adorable!
Their little tiny trunks are so adorable! Best wishes for continued health for these sweet babies.
Yes, those little trunks!!!!!
I love when baby elephants discover their trunk, swinging it around like it’s their own personal toy❤️❤️❤️❤️
Yes, very adorable and cute
How sweet, twins. She seems to be such a proud mom. Thank God the babies are fine.💕💕😍😍

@@Michael-uk3uv no problem, elephants are amazing creatures
@@WaryJester the problem is they don't get to live in a female herd in this zoo.. This is not natural.

Here in Sri Lanka, at the Pinnawela Elephant Orphanage, there was a twin birth last year. Both are growing up fast and are very naughty now.
😊😊💪💪‼️

Mama looks justifiably proud. Good job, Mama.
Great news. Twins = Wonderful, wonderful. Worked at well known zoo couple decades ago. Visited the elephants daily. A magical experience.
God bless mother elephant and her elephants calf's.❤️❤️❤️❤️🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🌎
What a sad world this would be if we ever lost these incredible animals.
I agree and think how many people think nothing of aborting an almost full-term baby. Now that’s sad.
