Giraffe And Gibbon Babies Born At Zoo

The video highlights two significant births at the National Zoological Park in Washington. First, a baby giraffe named Helen, the first of her kind born at the zoo, weighing nearly 100 pounds. Her parents are quite tall, suggesting she will grow to be large as well. The second birth is a baby gibbon named Barbara, who is being cared for by zoo attendants after her mother exhibited dangerous behavior. Barbara is the third gibbon born in America, and scientists note the gibbon's close relation to humans.
