Dallas Zoo makes big announcement: new baby elephant
Дата публикации: 03-08-2026 15:09:26
The Dallas Zoo announced the birth of a new baby elephant, after a nearly 21-month pregnancy – that’s a little less than average.
The zoo said the elephant, which has not yet been named, was born Sunday, July 26, around 12:30 p.m; he weighed in at around 230 lbs. He started nursing within his first hour of life.
The newborn is the younger brother of another Elephant at the zoo, Okubili (pronounced oh-coo-BEE-lee), which means two or duplicate. He was born in 2023. Their mother is Mlilo (pronounced ma-LEE-lo). The name was picked because Okubili, the elephant, is the second calf to his mother, Mlilo, and is almost a duplicate of her. Mlilo’s firstborn came in 2016. She was rescued in Swaziland before giving birth.
The zoo said it will soon announce when the baby elephant will make its habitat debut.

This little boy is almost three weeks old, and he has a NAME! Meet... Okubili! His name means "two" or "duplicate" in Zulu, and we think it's perfect for this little one because he is a carbon copy of second-time mom, Mlilo. pic.twitter.com/h3982SxTzx

The latest news from around North Texas.
Our little man Okubili made his public debut this morning! This tiny trunk spent the morning exploring every log & stick around the habitat, under the watchful eye of mom Mlilo. The pair will make regular appearances out on habitat - pending weather & comfort levels, of course. pic.twitter.com/isZR9yBHS6
