The greater one-horned rhino<\/a> or Indian rhino is the largest of the rhino species and is found in northern India and Nepal. But it is the first time in the recorded history that an Indian rhino is born at Zoo Miami on 23rd April 2019 at 12:30 a.m.<\/p>\n

The Heart of the Matter<\/h3>\n

After the wait of 15 months, a 7-year old rhinoceros named Akuti gave birth to one-horned Indian rhino via artificial insemination and induced ovulation. The newborn is the first successful birth of the species in the zoo\u2019s history. Although the calf\u2019s gender is not yet known and veterinarians are waiting to conduct a neonatal exam once the newborn and its mother establish a bond. \u00a0However, the initial observations depict that the baby born is healthy and well.<\/p>\n

Note:<\/b> The baby rhino will be kept out of the public eye for a few weeks, but those who are keen to know about the progress of the baby can check the updates on Facebook<\/a><\/i>.<\/p>\n
