LA Zoo Welcomes Baby Koalas!
The LA Zoo is debuting two baby koala bears, born March 1st and now making their way into the world.
The twins, one male and one female, are called Peninsular pronghorns. According to a statement on the zoo's website, baby koalas are just 3/4 of an inch long when they're born, then climb into their mother's pouches for about six months before venturing out into the world.
Another koala was born in the zoo last July, and the babies join a female desert bighorn sheep that was welcomed into the world on March 20.
