GULF BREEZE, Fla. — A Florida zoo recently welcomed a new baby rhino, officials said.
According to the Pensacola News Journal, Kalibur, a male southern white rhino, was born to mother Katie late last year at the Gulf Breeze Zoo in Gulf Breeze. He joins older sister Katana, who became the first white rhino born at the zoo when she arrived in 2018, the newspaper reported.
The zoo took to Facebook last month to announce Kalbur’s birth.
“We are so excited to share with you that we recently welcomed the second baby white rhino to be born at Gulf Breeze Zoo! Meet Kalibur, everyone,” the zoo captioned a video of the new addition. “This little fella and his mom are doing great, and both are happy, healthy rhinos.”

The zoo added that the newborn “is full of energy and can be seen romping at the preserve.”
“We are confident he will serve as a wonderful ambassador for his species,” the post continued. “Visit Kalibur today!”
