We're celebrating the arrival of an adorable baby tamandua at ZSL London Zoo - after loved up parents Ria and Tobi welcomed their fourth pup on Friday 30 July 2021.
Footage shared by keepers shows confident mum Ria taking the new little one for a walk around their South American-inspired Rainforest Life home just days later - with the 25cm long camouflaged youngster clinging firmly to her back.
We won’t know if the baby is a boy or girl until its first health check in a few months’ time, but in the meantime keepers have nicknamed the newborn Bueno, which means ‘good’ in Spanish – as the little one is doing such a great job holding on tight to mum.
