Elephant in historic twins birth
An elephant in Sri Lanka has given birth to twins for the first time in nearly 80 years, wildlife authorities said. The calves, both male, were born to 25-year-old Surangi at Pinnawala Elephant Orphanage in the central hills of the country. Their father, 17-year-old Pandu, is also an orphanage resident. Elephant experts in Sri Lanka said twins were last born to a domesticated elephant in the country in 1941.
