Fig . . . and Figlet

The San Diego Zoo has a mating pair of North Sulawesi Babirusa, which are a sort of pig native to parts of Indonesia.  The male is Jethro, and the female is named Fig . . . so when they had a couple of babies recently the zookeepers came up with a generic term for them . . . Figlets.

Here's Fig with one of her Figlets.
