Dr. Edwards, the zoo’s veterinarian, rushed in after receiving an urgent call from a worried zookeeper. When he looked at the monitor, his eyes widened in disbelief. “This can’t be real!” he exclaimed, quickly ordering everyone to clear out Lola’s enclosure.
Zac stood frozen, glancing between the vet, the screen, and Lola. The elephant looked frightened and unsure, just like him. As the veterinary team approached Lola, Zac hesitated. He didn’t know what to do, but he could see Lola needed comfort. Carefully, he stepped forward, speaking softly to calm her.
When no one responded to his concern, Zac knew he had to take matters into his own hands. “How do I get in there?” he asked himself desperately. That’s when he noticed a ventilation shaft nearby, uncovered by a fallen branch. He pushed the branch aside and peered inside—it looked just big enough to crawl through. Without thinking twice, he squeezed in.
Just as he reached the other side, the door swung open—and there was Dr. Edwards, surprised to see him. “Zac! How did you get in here?” the doctor asked. Out of breath, Zac just shrugged. “Is Lola okay?” he asked anxiously.
Dr. Edwards glanced back at the team. “She’s stable, but we’ve got our hands full.”
Lola seemed tense at first, her muscles tightening as if reacting to something hidden. But Zac’s presence seemed to ease her, and she slowly relaxed. Zac stood by her side while the vets continued their examination.
As Zac watched the ultrasound screen, something caught his eye. He squinted, confused. The vets leaned in closer. Suddenly, one of them gasped.
“No way,” whispered one, stunned.
“It’s twins!” another vet shouted joyfully.
Everyone in the room froze, then cheered as the screen clearly showed two tiny, moving figures. Lola was having twins—an incredibly rare and wonderful surprise.
Lola, with strength and grace, began to push. Everyone watched with anticipation, their nerves turning into excitement. When the delivery was complete, joy spread through the room.
The zoo buzzed with celebration. Lola and her two newborns were healthy, and the team felt proud of what they had accomplished.
As calm returned to the enclosure, the head vet smiled. “We did it.”
Lola lay resting, peaceful and proud. Her babies nestled beside her, a symbol of hope and new beginnings. For the zoo, it was more than just a birth—it was a miracle.
