Hello, Lily!

December 21st, 2012

Update: As of Jan. 5, there are no longer restricted viewing hours for Lily — she’s integrated with the herd and can be seen during general zoo hours.

Portland got an early holiday gift this year with the Nov. 30 birth of a baby elephant at the Oregon Zoo. Dubbed Lily by popular vote, she was 300 pounds at birth, but still looks tiny compared to her mom, Rose-Tu.

Just how cute is a baby elephant? See for yourself! The public can visit Lily and Rose-Tu from 10 a.m. – 2 p.m. daily (hours subject to change; check www.oregonzoo.org before you go).

Don’t miss your chance to see her while she’s still “little.”
