Berlin: Male pelican couple hatches chicks in Berlin Zoo. The egg had fallen from the nest of another pair of birds.
The chick, which does not yet have a name, is now growing up in the care of its two caring adoptive fathers. The pair had already bred in previous years, but separately with female sea pelicans. This season is the first time these two have come together as a same-sex couple.. Young animals hatch after about 30 days of incubation and are fed by both parents.
