Corra’s birth marks a significant milestone in the successful breeding program at Disney’s Animal Kingdom. The park has a history of nurturing and caring for these magnificent creatures, and Corra is the latest testament to their commitment.

The new addition to the elephant family is part of the park’s ongoing dedication to the protection and conservation of the African elephant species, which is currently facing threats from habitat loss and poaching.

Corra’s public debut was nothing short of magical. As she stepped out into the savanna for the first time, guests were captivated by her youthful energy and endearing charm. Whether she was exploring her new surroundings or staying close to her mother’s side, Corra was the center of attention.

Future Plans for Corra

While Corra is still spending most of her time with her mother, plans are in place for her to gradually integrate with the rest of the herd. In the coming months, visitors can expect to see more of Corra as she becomes more comfortable in her new environment.

Disney’s Animal Kingdom is looking forward to sharing Corra’s growth, development, and adorable antics with their guests. Corra’s journey is just beginning, and visitors can look forward to many memorable moments with this delightful baby elephant.

Visitors are invited to come and meet Corra, the newest star at Disney’s Animal Kingdom, and witness firsthand the magic of nature and wildlife conservation at work.
