Columbus Zoo Welcomes Baby Elephant, Baby Sea Lion Born Hours Apart
By: KDKA-TV News Staff
COLUMBUS, Ohio (KDKA) -- The Columbus Zoo in Ohio has two big reasons to celebrate, or, depending on how you look at it, two small reasons.
An Asian elephant calf and a California sea lion pup were born this week.
The elephant was born Wednesday evening thanks to her 33-year-old mother, Phoebe.
They say the baby is still figuring out how to use his trunk!
And Thursday morning, a California sea lion named Lovell delivered a new pup.
Both species are at risk in their native ranges, according to the zoo.
