Just in time for Mother’s Day, Disney’s Animal Kingdom welcomes its newest baby, a white rhino calf born May 9. The boy, the fourth birth for mom Kenda, doesn’t have a name yet, but does have a start on his horn nubule.
HORN-NUBULE-HANCE!

Happy Birfday, baby rhino! I may have gotten a 23-year head-start on you, but we can be cross-species twins!
