Dad duty: Same-sex flamingo couple hatches egg, cares for chick at San Diego zoo
A pair of flamingos have become first-time parents at the San Diego Zoo Safari Park after hatching an egg together. And they’re both dads.
The male foster parents — both in their 40s — are raising one of six chicks born this year at the North County park, which cares for nearly 100 lesser flamingos with their distinctive long legs, flexible necks and pink feathers.
The same-sex duo’s unusual path to parenthood came after wildlife care staffers noticed the two working together to build a nest.
