These pics of the Night Safari’s baby elephant making her public debut are adorable

Yesterday marked the public debut of the Night Safari’s first elephant baby in six years. The two-month-old female offspring of 39-year-old Chawang and 30-year-old Sri Nandong was seen happily gallivanting around the Asian elephant exhibit, exploring every nook and cranny in the space.

Already at 210kg, the curious calf counts splashing around in her play pool and rolling in the sand among her favourite things to do. And if you’re wondering why the little one doesn’t have a name yet, it’s ’cause the caregivers are waiting for her personality to fully develop before choosing one that will reflect her character.

Have a look at the baby on her first day out in the exhibit.
