These babies are a mystery…but they're too CUTEz!!!

Four South American snapping turtles hatched at the Austria's Schönbrunn Zoo aquarium.

Not much is know about these little ones but it was the first successful breeding of the rare turtle.

The turtles were donated to the zoo by a specialist who moved abroad and these may be the only ones in captivity!

Lots of unknown treasures are hidden inside the little shells!

And their bodies are in there too, of course! LOLz!

Because they're so freaking CUTE!!!

Three meerkat triplets have Austrians going baby crazy at Vienna's Schönbrunn Zoo. The aDORable baybays are exploring their environment for the first time and it's creating quite the buzz!

Born blind and hairless, the meerkats stayed in their burrow for the first few weeks after their February 20th birth.

Now, even though they're still suckling from momma, the babes are roaming the streets of their habitat.

With their own meerkat babysitter!

Check out these cuddly little critters (below) and see them play with each other.

Too precious!

Sloths are cute, slow and cute.

Also, did we mention super cute?

And baby sloths are all that times ten!!

At the Schönbrunn Zoo in Austria a new baby two-toed sloth was born.

The zoo director said:

"Newborn two-toed sloths use the stomach of the mother as a cradle and climb, well camouflaged, into the cuddly fur. As a consequence the baby was very difficult to photograph."

They must also be especially difficult to photograph when they're always making funny faces and sticking their tongues out, making it hard to get a good pic.

LOLz!

The baby will stay clinging to its mother for the first six months before trying to hang on its own.

And that's fine by us since it looks so darn cute clinging to its mama like that.
