Footage courtesy of Sea World on Australia's Gold Cost from April 27 shows the adorable moments that 16-year-old mother bear Liya cuddled up to her newborn polar bear cub twins. The infant cubs, two males called Hudson and Nelson, are still very fragile and are suckling from their mum inside the maternity den to gain strength. The little tykes weigh just over one pound and are about 5 inches long. However, they will grow to be among the largest land animals in the world. Adult male polar bears can weigh over 1,500 pounds and reach nearly 10 feet in length.
This extremely cute little guy is a baby dik dik antelope named Thanos. Chester Zoo released footage of tiny Thanos on Thursday showing how zoo staff cared for the baby calf after the miniature animal tragically lost his mother not long after she gave birth. Staff members of Chester Zoo are taking care of the antelope and feeding him five times per day by hand. They will continue to hand feed the baby until it is able to feed itself independently. Thanos is just 7 inches tall and he's still getting accustomed to his surroundings. Dik dik antelopes are quite small in general, and grow to a maximum of around 16 inches high, 28 inches long, and about 13 pounds. The dik dik is native to eastern and southern Africa and is named after the alarm call of the females.
