    Animalgeek, don't forget to practice your spelling and grammar on the forum. ;) It will pay off.

    I am pretty sure I told you on another thread that the calf born in March was named "Storm". The baby camel is called "Aloe". The baby waterbuck died - possibly of snake bite I heard.

    They planted trees that looked like aloe vera in the camel paddock, and the camels denuded and killed the plants within a few days, so the camel's name was timely. I think a new calf might be named Gangnam. :D
