Adorable breaking news just dropped at Disney World: we are talking about a brand-new manatee that has just arrived in EPCOT!
Calfuccino!
Calfuccino just made her EPCOT debut, and we are going to tell you everything we learned about the cutest new addition to the Sea Base Aquarium.
On our last visit to EPCOT, we found the most adorable new manatee, Calfuccino, swimming around with the other manatees in the Sea Base. After speaking to Cast Members, we learned more about Calfuccino and her story.
Hi Calfuccino!
She is around two years old and came to EPCOT after her mother, Venti, got injured. However, despite her injuries, she was still able to care for Calfuccino, who came into care very well fed and healthy. Currently, Venti is being treated at the Tampa Zoo and responding very well to care. There is not currently any information from the Cast Members on whether Calfuccino will be reunited with her mother.
We love her!
They also shared that Calfuccino is adding a lot of excitement to the manatee tank and that the other manatees are reportedly more active. She was swimming around a lot when we visited and was definitely not shy to say hi to guests! Calfuccino can be identified by her unique white markings on her face; she is also a little smaller and darker than the other manatees.
So cute!
We are already obsessed with her and are happy to learn that both she and her mom are currently thriving with their care. You can see even more from Calfuccino right here:
