From the Houston Zoo:
Baylor (weighs more than 1100 pounds) and Tupelo (weighs more than 600 pounds) now get a family size pool which is 120 inches in length and holds both calves. It is a lot more durable. Apparently, the calves more "baby" sized pool would only last about five minutes before popping.
This size pool lasts for about 5 uses before it has to be replaced. Playing in the pool is a fun enrichment activity for the babies and the pool is given to them when the weather allows. Pool time is unannounced and unplanned.
Don't miss Tupelo getting back in the pool at the :22 mark.
