About 100 kids have been born since mid-March on the scenic ranch 8 miles west of Salt Lake City International Airport. An additional 120 are expected to arrive in the coming weeks.
Each new member of the herd is welcomed into the world by a volunteer “kid sitter” who — just like a maternity ward nurse — keeps watch over the pregnant does as they prepare to deliver and then makes sure the new kids are washed, fed and cuddled.
“By ourselves, we couldn’t do this,” said refugee Ismael Mohamed, as two white and brown kids leapt and played at his feet.
