First Grey Crowned Crane Chicks Hatched | Minneapolis News

Published 3 weeks, 2 days ago
Description

Two new grey crowned crane chicks, Amani and Baraka, have hatched at Como Zoo — the first successful births of their kind at the facility. Their parents, Houdini and Mutambi, nested in the giraffe building, and after years of trying, these chicks are thriving, already hunting mealworms and bonding with their dad. While the family stays hidden for safety from predators, glimpses may be possible through a mesh door. These endangered birds, known for their golden crowns and vibrant throats, are now growing strong — a hopeful sign for conservation.
