Congratulations, it's lizard triplets!
ABC report that the island of "El Hierro is celebrating the birth of three new giant lizards". Presumably, the babies are doing fine, so it's cigars all round at the lizard recuperation center in the Valle del Golfo!
This is good news, as 182 lizards - the El Hierro Giant Lizard (Gallotia simonyi) is a critically endangered species, unique in the world - were killed in the island's worst ever natural disaster; the storms and floods that hit the island last January.
