Right here! Bouncing baby rhinos are on the way, and you can help moms-to-be, Amani and Victoria, get the nursery ready.
What's the Big Deal?
These aren’t just any rhino pregnancies. Victoria and Amani are the first rhinos in San Diego Zoo Global’s 103-year history to become pregnant by artificial insemination. They’re part of a cutting-edge program that will help save their cousin, the northern white rhino, from extinction. With only 2 left on the planet, this program is the northern white rhino’s only hope for survival.
UPDATE: CAMERA SYSTEM
The new, state-of-the-art, indoor/outdoor camera system was successfully funded!
THANK YOU to everyone who donated. Your generosity will make sure veterinarians and keepers can keep an extra-close eye on the mothers and babies, around the clock, without disturbing them.
You can still give a gift! The mothers-to-be still need other items. Scroll ↓
RHINO-SIZED BODY PILLOWS
Your gift of $250 could spoil our moms-to-be by providing their favorite treats or a rhino-sized body pillow, a special, extra-cushiony mattress for pregnant rhinos.
RUN THE RHINO RESCUE CENTER
Your gift of $1,200 could run the Nikita Kahn Rhino Rescue Center for an entire day. And as a thank you, your name (or that of a loved one) will be listed on the San Diego Zoo Global annual conservation recognition plaque. This plaque will be displayed at the San Diego Zoo from Spring 2020 to Spring 2021.
Victoria's baby will be here soon!
