Two extremely rare elephant twins have been born on a game reserve in south-east South Africa.

The unnamed babies were spotted on the Pongola Game Reserve in Northern Kwa-Zulu Natal this week, watched over by their mother and the rest of the herd.

Less than one per cent of elephants born are twins, and the last reported set in the area born in 2006, to a cow in Kruger National Park.
