Bongo / Taronga Zoo

Taronga Zoo is celebrating the birth of a rare animal, a female Eastern Bongo calf, on 2 April in the early hours. Keepers watching on closed circuit TV cameras were delighted to witness the perfect maternal instincts that first-time mother Djembe showed in cleaning the newborn. The baby suckled within two hours. She’s been named Kiazi, which means sweet potato — via ZooBorns
