Triplets!
Despite our continual monitoring in the last hours of her labor, Iris decided to have three new kids without our help. She delivered two does and a buck kid about 10 pm last night (April 17). The black doe with a white spot on her head will be named Ivy; the white doe, Lily; and the white buck, Walter.

So jealous! :) You guys are doing great things! I wanted you to know that Alex Lindenburger's sister volunteers here at the zoo. I gave her your blog spot address so that he could look you guys up. Love you, Kim
