    Where to See Baby Animals in the New York City Area

    Where to See Baby Animals in the New York City Area

    Brighten up your day with some lovable little critters!

    By Melissa A. Kay

    Birth announcements can be pretty exciting. Perhaps even more exciting, is when those announcements are for new baby animals in our area. Here is where you can check out the newest and most adorable additions to zoos and farms in the New York area. We just love us some animal babies!

     

    Baby goats at Brookhollow’s Barnyard
    301 Rockaway Valley Rd., Boonton Township, NJ
    201-400-4505

    Take your kids to see baby rabbits, multiple goslings, and even two baby kids (goats) over at Brookhollow’s Barnyard. They're learning to walk but still have lots of growing to do. They're an adorable addition to the barnyard and your children will love how they interact with the other farm animals.
