WATCH: For the first time since birth, two Andean bear cubs are now clumsily moving into a public-facing habitat at the San Diego Zoo. 🐻🥺
Back in 1993, Alba's grandmother, Houdini, also gave birth to twins.
“We couldn’t be more thrilled about the birth of Alba’s twin cubs,” said Tammy Batson, lead wildlife care specialist at the San Diego Zoo. “We witnessed Alba transition beautifully into motherhood with her first cub a couple of years ago, and now as a second-time mother with twins, she continues to impress us with her attentiveness. She’s a proven mom, who now has both hands full."
Andean bears are counted as Vulnerable on the International Union for Conservation of Nature Red List of Threatened Species. The birth of these bears is significant to conservation research of their species, according to the zoo. They are the last living relative of the extinct giant short-faced bear and the only bear species native to South America.
