New Bundle of Trunk Joy at French Zoo

Okay, forget everything you think you know about a long pregnancy. This elephant mama just put us all to shame. After a staggering 21-month wait and a seven-hour labor, she’s finally introduced the world to her perfect, healthy baby girl.

Move over, royal baby announcements. This is the only birth worth stalking the pram for. The zoo is obviously over the moon, and let’s be real, so are we. Who needs another celebrity gender reveal when you can have a mini mammoth making her grand debut?

We’re already drafting the baby shower gift list. Giant pacifier? A lifetime supply of peanuts? The real question is… what’s her name going to be?
