Taronga's newborn female Asian Elephant calf was officially named 'Tukta' today, a Thai name meaning 'doll'. Pronounced 'took-tuh', the name was chosen by the Zoo's Elephant Keepers.

Little Tukta is a real sweetie. No doubt about that. It seems the whole herd loves her.

Yes, Tukta is absolutely adorable little doll, so he name suits her beautifully! I was there today as well, but thank you very much for sharing this!
