Let’s See How Animal Kingdom’s Newest Baby Piglet is Doing
Here at MickeyBlog we love a good animal baby. That’s why we are so excited to give everyone and updated on the babirusa piglet named Kirana that was born at Animal Kingdom in May. Her name means sunbeam and from these images below we would say that the name holds true.
The type of pig might look a bit unfamiliar. That’s because Babirusas are native to the swamps and rainforests of the Indonesian Islands. These pigs are known for their unusual snouts and tusks that can grow up to 17 inches.
According to a post on the Disney Animal, Sciences and Environment Page, Kirana recently took her first steps into The Oasis at Animal Kingdom theme park. We were also told that this lovely little piglet is 3 months old and currently was 25 lbs! You can check out the post here:
