This video was recorded while Tua was keeping her baby covered and out of sight from all the Zoo members who were hoping to get a peek at her. It almost seemed like she was trying to communicate something the way she kept looking toward the one small area I found in the crowd to position my camera touching the glass to minimize the glare. She kept doing that for about ten minutes, then covered the baby with even more straw. After a while, she did bring uncover the baby, which she never puts down, and walked around a little so everyone could see how adorable it is. The Zoo staff is 99.9% sure the baby is a girl. And 100% sure it is healthy and growing and developing exactly as it should be.
