Mali & Pathi Harn

I just had to share these photos of the beautiful baby elephants recently born in Melbourne and Sydney.

Mali - (Jasmine Flower in Thai)



I

Mali was born in Melbourne to Dokkoon and is our newest favorite girl!!














Mali is very lucky to have her lovely Mother (left with her) and her Mother's best friend Mek Kapah as her Auntie (pictured below at the rear, Dokkoon is in the front).















Pathi Harn - (Miracle in Thai) aka "Mr Shuffles"



Pathi Harn was born in Sydney to Porntip and is our newest favorite boy.

His nickname of Mr Shuffles comes from his early attempts at walking.




















Pathi Harn's name has a very special meaning - he really is a miracle as it was thought he had died inside Porntip's womb during his birth!




















Pathi Harn (born March 10th) is the third elephant calf to be born in Australia and his cousin Luk Chai was also born at Taronga Zoo (nine months ago), Mali who was born at Melbourne Zoo (in January) is Pathi Harn's Half Sister. They have all had Buddist blessings after their names were released (they were voted by the public).
