Kathmandu, January 22. Conservationist group Save the Elephants have announced that an elephant in Kenya’s Northern grasslands has given birth to twin calves.

This is a memorable moment among the endangered species, as twins account for only 1% of all births.

A few days old calves were discovered by Safari tourists in Samburu reserve, who indicated that the twin infants require external care.

Founder of Save the Elephants, Iain Douglas-Hamilton told reporters that in such circumstances, the mothers of twins usually don’t have enough milk to keep the calves alive.

Kenya has an estimated 36,280 elephants, according to a recent wildlife census.
