It’s a girl! An elephant gave birth at the National Zoo on Monday, February 2, marking the first time in almost 25 years the zoo has welcomed a baby Asian elephant🐘💕The zoo says the baby is “healthy, alert and bright-eyed.” She weighs 380 pounds, a wee little thing for a species that eventually lands somewhere between 6,000 and 12,000 pounds in adulthood. (Yes, a new elephant is quite literally a big deal.) The calf is mom Nhi Linh’s first baby. Her pregnancy was announced in November 2025, af
