A second critically endangered African pancake tortoise has just hatched at the Denver Zoo Conservation Alliance, adding a spark of hope for this unique species. With only six of these flat-shelled tortoises now at the zoo—including two babies and their mom, Waffles—visitors have a rare chance to see conservation in action. The new hatchlings are temporarily housed in the Komodo dragon area due to high interest. It’s a big win for the zoo’s breeding efforts and a reminder of how local action can help protect species on the brink. What other animals do you hope to see thriving at our zoo? #Pets #DenverZoo #Conservation
