Present‑day Developments: The Beauval Zoo in central France is celebrating a monumental moment — the birth of a baby elephant, delivered after her mother N’Dala endured a delicate seven‑hour labor. The newborn female tipped the scales at 150 kilos, a size that zoo director Rodolphe Delord described as “very, very big.”
It’s a heart‑warming milestone for the zoo and a rare glimpse into the emotional, physical, and logistical intensity behind elephant births. With calves typically weighing between 100 and 120 kilos at birth, this little giant is already making headlines for her impressive arrival.
Our current reporting comes from our trusted sources at FRANCE 24, offering a firsthand look at the excitement, relief, and joy surrounding the new addition to the Beauval family.
