Can animals give birth to twins? – Mia C., age 10
Ask any parent – welcoming a new baby to the family is exciting, but it comes with a lot of work. And when the new addition is a pair of babies – twins – parents really have their work cut out for them.
For many animal species it’s the norm to have multiple babies at once. A litter of piglets can be as many as 11 or more!
We are faculty members at Mississippi State University College of Veterinary Medicine. We’ve been present for the births of many puppies and kittens over the years – and the animal moms almost always deliver multiples.
