Same-sex flamingo couple Curtis and Arthur hatched a chick at Paignton Zoo in Devon, UK.
A same-sex flamingo couple named Curtis and Arthur hatched a chick at Paignton Zoo in Devon, UK. It's thought that the egg was abandoned by another pair, leading to the adoption. This marks the first round of Chilean flamingo chicks at the zoo since 2018, as the species faces declining populations in the wild due to factors such as egg-harvesting, tourism disturbance, and habitat degradation caused by mining.
