New Pint-Sized Baby Mandrill Monkey Welcomed at Disney’s Animal Kingdom

Brace yourselves, Disney fans! I know how you love the animals of Disney, especially the baby ones, and today we have a special treat to show you. Disney’s Animal Kingdom has just welcomed a brand new, pint-sized Baby Mandrill Monkey, and it is adorable!

Weighing less than three pounds, this pint-sized baby girl is named Saffron and could almost fit in the palm of your hand. Despite this newborn’s current size, mandrills are the largest species of monkeys in the world, and she could grow up to 25 pounds in a few years. For now, though, Saffron is clinging tightly to her mom Hazel and nursing in the treetops of their habitat on Kilimanjaro Safaris.
