The pregnancies of Phoebe and Sunny at the Columbus Zoo mark a significant achievement in conservation efforts, reflecting the zoo's commitment to sustaining future elephant populations.
Adam Felts stated, 'This is a big step for us. Baby elephants are rare, and this showcases our ability to help the population as a whole...'
The Asian elephant is endangered, with only 30,000 to 50,000 left in the wild, making these pregnancies vital for species conservation.
Zoo officials are cautiously optimistic about the health of both pregnancies, noting that this is the first instance of dual pregnancies at the zoo.
