Meet Cornelia, baby Sichuan takin

Introducing baby Cornelia 😍

This newborn Sichuan takin (rhymes with rockin’) was born on Jan. 28 to first-time mother Dawn and father Yadier, marking the first takin birth at the Saint Louis Zoo since 2016.

Cornelia weighed 19.4 pounds at her neonatal exam, but is expected to grow to about 500 pounds over the next 2 years!

Her name comes from the Latin term for “horn” — perfect for this species of antelope-goat where both males and females grow small horns. Takin live in remote bamboo forests in the mountains of Asia and are considered a national treasure protected by the Chinese government.

Mom and baby Cornelia are doing well and recently made their first trip into their outdoor habitat.

Stop by Red Rocks for a chance to see Cornelia as she learns to climb and explore. Talk about cute!
