I would like to congratulate all the staff on the rhino section and curatorial management at Chester for all their hard work put in over the last few years to create the conditions that have promoted their breeding.
I must get out there later in the year or possibly when the next calf is due in 2009!

Some shots I took of the new calf on Saturday. Apologies for the poor quality, my 2 and a half year old camera seems to be on its last legs and I didn't want to use the flash around the calf...

Rhino calves grow amazingly fast. You can see the body outline of the calf in the heat photo shows he's already bigger & bulkier than at birth.

The little rhino is so cute, especially when (s)he runs!
I spent a good half hour watching him last weekend. Got a few photos (not as many as i'd like as i dont like using flash when photographing animals / children, and its quite dark in the indoor enclosure)

He has now got a name, but it is not going to be released till sometime next week. No doubt to whip some media up about the calf to draw more visitors in.
Also other news, they are testing Manyara to see when she comes into season for introducing her to sammy. |
