Look at those adorable stripes! Disney Parks Blog helped Disney's Animal Kingdom announce the births of two female Grevy's zebra foals. Grevy'szebras are the most endangered species of zebra, with approximately 2,500 in the world. The first foal was born April 26 to Laylee, with the second born to Zuri on May 1. They're nursing and bonding with their moms right now, hoping to join the herd on Gorilla Falls Exploration Trail overlook soon. These births mark another success for Disney's animal care experts and the Species Survival Plan, a program through the Association of Zoos and Aquariums that helps ensure a diverse, healthy population of threatened and endangered species.
