Meet Night Safari's very own "Singapore Son", Nila Utama. The park's first Asian elephant to be born in nine years, he is now 9 months old, weighing in at a hefty 439 kg.

The nine month old calf has already developed a character of its own. Bold and inquisitive, it loves exploring every nook and cranny of its home at the Night Safari. Nila Utama has also developed a liking to playing and splashing around in the water pool at the park but what he enjoys most, is a good scrub by his keepers. Be sure to try and spot the little one standing close to his mother, Sri Nandong, at the Night Safari's Asian elephants exhibit.

  • Nila is very sweet and cute of course. However, zoo wasnt too attentive enough letting Nila birth hitting on a hard ground. Should have laid grass patch around them for safety birth.

  • its eyes are bulging out!

  • What a cutie!!!
