Philadelphia Zoo has seen an explosion of animal births this year, including a critically endangered Mongoose Lemur, two endangered Francois Langurs, an endangered White-handed gibbon, a Hoffman two-toed sloth, and a Humboldt penguin chick, considered Vulnerable by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN). All of the infants are doing well and are on exhibit at the Zoo.
