Baby Silvery Gibbon – level 2

19-10-2018 07:00

An adorable baby silvery gibbon was born at Chester Zoo in Cheshire, England. There are less than 2,500 of the endangered animals in the wild, so this is good news.

Zoo keepers do not know if the baby is male or female because it is too small to tell. This baby is the newest baby in a baby boom at the zoo.

Difficult words: adorable (very cute), endangered (in danger of dying out), baby boom (when many babies are born at one time).

You can watch the original video in the Level 3 section.
