The Ramat Gan Safari announced on Sunday that one of its rhinos had given birth to a healthy male calf and that mother and son were both doing fine.
The 11-year-old Rihanna, named after the Barbados-born R&B singer, gave birth over the weekend, the zoological park, just outside Tel Aviv.
This is Rihanna’s third calf, following the births of Rami and Rainy Rafiki in recent years. A rhinoceros’s gestation period is usually about a year and a half.
