The female is just like her mother in good health and with much love is surrounded by ‘May’, and her team of caregivers. It is already the third time in Pairi Daiza, an elephant calf is healthy and well in the world.
Also for the 23-year-old Aye Chan May itself, this is the third calf. In 2009 she gave birth to in her former residence in the zoo of Cologne, a son, Khing Yadanar Min. The now 9-year-old bull will stay healthy and well in the Zoo of Heidelberg. Her second calf was less fortunate. In 2016 died in Pairi Daiza just after the birth to a deformity, which, of course, for a lot of emotion created by both May as its caretakers. That this time everything will prosper went, was a great relief for the entire team at Pairi Daiza. the
