A special celebration is taking place today for Kufara the Black Rhino which turns one this week!  Kufara was born on Thursday 17 February 2010 to first-time mother Bakhita and is the second generation of Black Rhinos to be born at the Zoo.


Over the past year Kufara has grown steadily both in size and personality.  Kufara has definitely taken on the personality of both parents, with her mother’s confidence and her father’s gentle nature.


To celebrate this special milestone, keepers have decked out Bakhita and Kufara’s exhibit with their favourite browse and fruit spikes for them to enjoy!
