#EleTwins Yaad and Tukada are 6 months old! At 6 months old they have; more than doubled in weight, started to eat solid food, have much better control of their trunks, and continue to be the cutest “little” things that we ever did see! ❤️🐘🐘 #Syracusezoo

Have you herd? As of yesterday, BOTH Yaad and Tukada weighed in at 457 pounds! At birth, Yaad and Tukada weighed 220 and 237, which means they’ve more than doubled in weight in the past 5 months! #Syracusezoo #EleTwins

Why #EleTwins, what fuzzy little heads you have! Well, it’s less fuzz and more coarse, wiry hairs. As the twins grow, their hair will remain the same density and gradually become thinner and less visible, making them appear less hairy! #Syracusezoo

Happy #WorldBearDay from Andean bear Bjorn! Did you know that the Andean bear, also called the spectacled bear, is the only species of bear native to South America? They can be found in the Andes and outlying mountain ranges, from western Venezuela south to Bolivia. #Syracusezoo

Luck of the #EleTwins!🍀In many cultures, elephants symbolize good luck, and we couldn’t feel more lucky to have Yaad, Tukada, and their incredible animal care staff.
And no, the pool did not survive this time. 😂 #Syracusezoo

Happy #NationalNappingDay from Andean bear Bjorn! He can usually be found in his hammock taking a midday nap after a morning of causing chaos. 😝 #Syracusezoo

Baby’s first bubble bath! 🥺 Well, Tukada’s first bubble bath. Yaad preferred to stay on dry ground. Knowing how much baby elephants love water, it won’t be long before Yaad joins in the fun! #Syracusezoo #EleTwins

“There’s SNOW-body like you, Valentine!” Snow leopards are solitary except in breeding season, when males and females will hunt for prey together. They can leap up to 45 feet in pursuit of their prey! #Syracusezoo
