[Music]
thanks pippin freddy special delivery
this little baby is a special kind of
animal called a babaroosa babarusas are
a type of pig like other pigs baby
babarus's are called piglets
when piglets are born they weigh less
than two pounds but a grown-up male can
weigh around a hundred pounds that's a
big difference
grown-up male babarussas grow long tusks
while female babarus's do not
the word babarusa means pig deer because
of their long tusks that sort of look
like antlers on a deer babaroosas
communicate with each other by making a
bunch of different sounds
let's all make a growling noise
cool
at about 10 days old piglets will begin
exploring the world around them
while mom provides great care for her
piglets a team of animal care experts is
there to make sure mom and babies have
everything they might need my name is
dan i'm an animal keeper i work for
disney's animal science and environment
i get to take care of the babaroosa by
helping feeding them taking care of them
helping clean up they really enjoy their
treats they love fruits like apples
bananas peanuts are their favorite
treats
they're such fun animals they're
incredibly smart and they're just
adorable too
