Black Rhino Gives Birth to Male Calf at Michigan Zoo – Video

According to Save the Rhino, an organisation that is dedicated to preserving rhinoceroses, around 5,000 black rhinos are left in the world, with almost all of them living in South Africa, Zimbabwe, Kenya, and Namibia.

On Christmas Eve, 12-year-old black rhino Doppsee, which lives at Potter Park Zoo in Lansing, produced a newborn calf – the first such event in the zoo’s history.

He pointed out that only about two black rhinos are born every year at US zoos, the New York Times reports. It added that the newborn has not yet been given a name.

According to the release, Doppsee and her calf will not be shown to the public until the spring of 2020.
