The Newest, Cutest Baby Animals from the World's Zoos & Aquariums
On May 7th at Germany's Hannover Zoo, after 670 days of gestation, proud elephant mother Sayang delivered a baby girl. At 89 centimeters tall, and weighing 106 kilos the calf is a real heart-breaker. For four weeks, zoo keepers and vets kept a round the clock eye on the expectant mother until tests revealed the delivery was imminent. The baby is healthy and happily adjusting to her new surroundings.

“the delivery was eminent”? I think you meant it was imminent.
89 cm maybe? That would have been a scary delivery for momma at 89 inches!
In the meantime the second of five Elephant babies is on earth. Born 11th, May 2010.
Maybe it was eminently imminent… or something.
So many baby elephants… so much cuteness. I just love these ‘little’ critters.
I think I’m going to call her Little Miss Shuffles :o)
