Drop Everything And Meet The Adorable Baby Rhino Just Born In The US
Normally we’re all about bringing you wholesome news about very good doggos, but we had a thought — dogs aren’t the only cute animals. Let us introduce you to this adorable baby rhino who was just born in Blank Park Zoo in the United States.
Her name is Kamara and she’s a very good girl. You can watch her being a very good girl here. Go on, we’ll wait.

The zoo participates in a species survival plan to protect the black rhino, and Kamara will play a very important role in preserving the species.

When she gets a bit bigger, Kamara will have two horns and could weigh up to 3000 pounds.
The name Kamara was decided in a public competition and means “moonlight” in Swahili. Look at this little ray of moonlight!
Blank Park Zoo does a lot of research, education and conservation work to inspire an appreciation for nature. Kamara joins the other animals living the good life here, like lions, tigers, and penguins.
Got a few minutes to spare? This live stream of Kamara living her best rhino life is one of the cutest things ever.
There are plenty of cute animals closer to home as well, like the young tiger cubs at Taronga Zoo.
