    I didn't know anything about these beautiful animals. I am glad that I saw this video. I love them. I have one food-related question: When do the babies start eating solid food, how long do they nurse and how long when they are solely on solid food, or once they start eating solid food do they stop nursing immediately? My lifelong dream is to travel and visit all the great zoos in America.
