Rare Rhino Baby Is Only The Second Of Her Kind Born In 128 Years

An amazing event took place in Indonesia last week. The International Rhino Foundation made an announcement that one of their Sumatran rhinos, a female named Ratu, just gave birth to a female rhino calf. Think that doesn’t necessarily qualify as “amazing”?

In light of these challenges, Ellis noted in the IRF's press release: "We are overjoyed that Ratu delivered a healthy calf and are cautiously optimistic that the calf will continue to thrive. "She's absolutely adorable, and we haven't stopped smiling since the moment we were sure she was alive and healthy. "While one birth does not save the species, it's one more Sumatran rhino on Earth."
