These are the world's rarest babies

A native of Singapore ranks among critically endangered animal species in the world.

The Sunda pangolin belongs to a list of animals listed as ‘threatened’ in the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List of Threatened Species.

Between January and August 2014, over 400 animal babies were born or hatched in Jurong Bird Park, Night Safari, River Safari and Singapore Zoo. The births of some of the critically endangered species were announced on Thursday 2 October to mark World Animal Day 2014.
