Lazy offspring in Nordhorn: sweet surprise before Christmas!

In the Nordhorn zoo, animal lovers can look forward to a baby -like surprise. Shortly before Christmas, sloth mom "Wutz" gave another young animal to the world that lies on her stomach-what a heartbreaking sight! Just a few days ago, "Nala", the last baby from "Wutz", took off, and now the family has grown again. The 15-year-old "Wutz" and her breeding man "Sid", who comes from Vienna and convinces with an Austrian charm, ensure rain in the sloth house. After the birth, the newborn survived the first critical days well, but the gender still remains unknown, like ems-vechte-surfer.de reported.

In Berlin, on the other hand, there is great news from the zoo: Panda-Mama Meng Meng gave birth to twins on August 22nd! This special birth was only the second of its kind in Germany and was greeted by everyone, even by the ruling mayor. The little ones, who are still pink and naked, have now developed splendidly and are already wearing their typical black and white fur drawing. Both young animals, whose gender was found as two females after a week, are lovingly cared for around the clock by their mother and the experienced Panda team. This was highlighted in an article by Tagesspiegel.de

The rearing of the panda twins is another example of successful animal breeding in zoological facilities. Both animals now weigh over 500 grams. Their development is particularly important because the large pandas in nature are very threatened. For the sloths in Nordhorn and the Pandas in Berlin, these births show how significant the work of zoos is for the protection of biodiversity, and at the same time give an insight into the loving care that the two animal species is given.
