The baby elephant at the Oregon Zoo turns 1 this weekend. The Zoo is marking Tula-Tu's birthday with a daylong celebration Sunday, Feb. 1.
In a press release, the zoo says Tula has delighted fans around the world "sparking hope for her endangered species."
Tula isn't so little anymore. She now weighs almost a thousand pounds, nearly five times her birth weight.
Tula-Tu is a popular pachyderm. She's been on the Today Show and in June served as honorary grand marshal of the Rose Festival’s Grand Floral Parade.
