WATCH: Three bald eaglets hatch at Zoo Miami

Published



The rare occurrence of three bald eaglets hatching together was caught on camera this week at Zoo Miami.

Rita, the bald eagle mother, laid three eggs by Dec. 1, which was surprising because bald eagles typically only lay two eggs a year, according to Zoo Miami. The first eaglet hatched on New Year’s Day, with all three hatching by Jan. 6. The third eaglet did not survive, though.
