A rare birth of a twin elephant was recorded in Kenya

This is a critical time for the puppies, because the last set of twins born 15 years ago did not survive long after birth, the organization’s founder, Ian Douglas Hamilton, told Reuters news agency.

He added that mothers often do not have enough milk to feed both babies.

African elephants have the longest gestation period of any mammal. They carry their young for about 22 months and give birth every four years.

The ivory trade and loss of vital habitats have placed elephants on the International Union for Conservation of Nature’s list of endangered species.

However, Kenya’s elephant population has grown in recent years, according to the country’s first wildlife census published last year.
