Baby Turtle
Baby sea turtles are so cute, but infamous for their journey to the sea. The baby turtle will hatch from its nest and attempt to make its way to the water, with many obstacles in it’s way. Obstacles include driftwood and crabs.
Birds, raccoons and fish are only some of the many predators in the baby turtle’s way. It is estimated that only one in a thousand hatchlings survive to adulthood.
Baby Zebra
A zebra foal will be born weighing somewhere between 55 to 88 pounds, and only one is born at a time. Zebras can live between 12-15 years in the wild and more than 20 in captivity. Zebras usually give birth to a foal every 2-3 years.
At birth, zebras are born mostly with brown stripes, and the more they grow the more the brown disappears into the standard black and white stripes that we expect of zebras, they are adorable though!
