Later this month, their gender will be confirmed (though zookeepers suspect they're a boy and a girl) and they will also receive health checks and vaccinations. "They may be young, but they’re already showing signs of their own little personalities," Mahony explained. Despite this being their first time as parents, Nairobi and Maputo are doing a wonderful job.
