The elephant orphanage home Pinnawala was established by department of wildlife conservation Sri Lanka in 1975 for feeding and providing care and sanctuary to orphaned baby elephants that were found in the wild. In its long history this orphanage home sheltered numerous injured elephants and abandoned calves who were unable to survive in the wild.
When it was diagnosed that this elephant mother had conceived with two babies, she was given special attention and care by the team of veterinarians including the staff in the animal section. She was provided with supplements and extra foods. As a result she gave birth to healthy calves.
Twin elephant birth in orphanage home is very rare worldwide, although several cases reported in national parks and natural forests. Elephants have the ability to give birth to twins, although it is rare. They usually only give birth to one. There is only around 1.6% of possibility for an elephant to have twins
Both of these baby elephants are male calves. The first calf was born around 4 am and second calf at 10 am. One of the babies was very weak when he was born.
