Babirusas

September 2009 - These are the new babirusas born this year. They were kind of scared of me, as I was there by my self.

how many do the zoo keep? Interesting that the adult in the pciture doesn't have tusks.
 
The zoo has five (3.2), the adult breeding pair, the two babies, and a juvenile male that is about to be sent to another zoo. The adult does not have tusks because this is the female. I believe that females don't get tusks, but I'm not sure.

By far one of our grassier exhibits. Also one of the cooler, more shaded areas to hang-out on a hot day. Nice Babirusa family photo.
