Stella is the offspring of Donna, a 28-year old elephant and mom to two other elephants born at Disney's Animal Kingdom. The article mentions that Donna became pregnant through natural breeding in January of 2015. The elephant population at Disney's Animal Kingdom has now been increased to 10 - 3 males and 7 females.

They mentioned the one elephant was expecting soon when we were there in December and after reading in Jan about the birth, I actually just thought it was there in Dec. talk about confused.

GusGus, we are getting the storm named Stella right now a lot of snow in NYS and strong winds this afternoon no blizzard yet.

Cathie, it must be you, everyone seems to want to pick on you and not very nicely. I think it all started with the Donald episode. LOL
