一些世界上最小的动物幼崽,你见过几种?


The two baby monkeys are new to the Exotic Zoo. They are new to the world. And the most surprising thing is: they are only around 3cm, very very small. They are the smallest monkeys in the world, called Pygmy Marmoset. They are only 10-15cm when they grow up. They can be found in the Amazon. They are easy to die (死) in the wild. So it’s very exciting to see this kind of monkey babies in the zoo.

Now we see the smallest monkeys. What’re the smallest birds and snakes?
The Bee Hummingbird is the world’s smallest bird. The boy birds grow to only around n5.5cm. The girl birds can grow a little bigger to around 6cm. They are usually less than 2g. These birds are only found in Cuba.
