HOLD THE PHONE! Disney’s Animal Kingdom has ANOTHER surprise for us, and we’re over the moon with joy.

A new baby giraffe recently debuted out on the savanna and can be seen when riding Kilimanjaro Safaris, but now there’s even MORE baby animal news! Three new babies have made their entrance into their habitat, and you’re about to lose it at their names.
Dr. Mark, Vice President at Disney’s Animals, Science and Environment, just took to Instagram to share that three new baby Asian small-clawed otters have joined the Animal Kingdom family!

Their names are Butternut, Biscuit, and Potato (OBSESSED!) and they were born back in December. Did you know that this is the smallest species of otter and that they’re born with their eyes closed? You learn something new every day!

These little guys are still dependant on their parents, Kevin and Mae, to teach them all the ways of being an otter — learning to swim included! You can see them when you visit Otter Grotto in the park. Personally, since we get to be in the parks so often, we can’t wait to watch them grow up!

We truly can’t get over how adorable these little ones are, and are looking forward to seeing what other baby animal might arrive in the park next!
