A baby Asian elephant goes on full public view at Twycross Zoo today, March 11, 2014. In the early hours of the morning on Tuesday 4th March, 18 year old Noorjahan, one of Zoo’s four Asian elephants, gave birth to a healthy female calf after a hefty 22-month long pregnancy! The young calf will suckle an incredible 11-litres of milk a day from her mother until she is approximately 12-months old, after which she will also begin to take solids such as vegetables, fruit and hay. When she reaches adulthood, just like her mum, she will be munching her way through four bales of hay, several buckets of vegetables and fruit and numerous gallons of water a day to wash it all down!
