The Newest, Cutest Baby Animals from the World's Zoos & Aquariums
Have a closer look at Tierpark Berlin’s golden-bellied capuchins. There's always something going on in the primate family of mum Obi and dad Jacko – and that's no wonder with six siblings. The youngest of the bunch is just one month old. Still protected on mom's back, the little one is getting more and more curious and observes the hustle and bustle.

See how Tierpark Berlin’s critically endangered European hamsters changed after just 10 days in this update video. Everything with the pups is going well, so there’s not a lot more to report!
The Sumatran tiger is one of the most endangered big cats on earth. At Tierpark Berlin, there is now a new glimmer of hope for the preservation of the entire species: Female tiger Mayang (11) gave birth to two cubs at the beginning of September. After a sad setback with a previous litter (all four young tigers were born with a genetic disease) the zoo team is now particularly happy.
For about 15 months, a small giraffe grows up in her mother's belly. When the time finally comes, the giraffe cow gives birth to its not so small offspring standing up. Now, almost just in time for World Giraffe Day on June 21, a small female giraffe has been born in Tierpark Berlin. Mother Amalka (8) and young animal are well and can already be seen in the giraffe house.
Tierpark Berlin's youngest offspring is still a little sleepy as it peeks out of the pouch. For a few weeks now, Fridolin and Finja's joey has been showing itself to visitors more and more frequently. When exactly it was born is not entirely clear. At birth, Pademelon are only about the size of a gummy bear and crawl right into their mother's pouch. It can take several months to half a year for them to emerge for the first time.
Eat, sleep, repeat… There are currently three zoo-born pelicans among the Tierpark Berlin Brown Pelicans. Amazingly, the little ones are being raised together in one nest. Typically, only one or two young are raised successfully. The triplets hatched around Christmas time last year. The pelican family are on view year around at the zoo.
2021 was a fruitful year for the troupe of Geladas at Germany's Tierpark Berlin.
The youngest gelada was born on the 16th of November 2021.
The team confirms the gender only after some time.
The gestation period is 6 month and the mother breast-feeds the newborn for 1.5-2 years.
Geladas are the only species of primate in which the young can drink from both breasts at the same time, because the nipples are so close together.
Geladas have been kept at Tierpark Berlin since 1992.
There’s a fluffy baby among the alpacas at Tierpark Berlin! The foal was born in August and is a girl. Mother Alice takes excellent care of her little whirlwind. Their llama neighbors are still getting used to all the hustle and bustle!
There’s an adorable cuddly baby among the Red Howler Monkeys at Tierpark Berlin. The infant has been hiding in mother Moéma's belly fur since last Thursday. The baby is just starting to slide down from mom's belly, drink lots of milk, and cuddle some more. It’s still too early to determine the sex of the infant.
