“We are thrilled to have Semba expecting her third calf. She has lived at our zoo for over two years. Shortly after arriving she and Mabu, the bull, successfully bred. The breeding behavior and impending birth are factors indicating the herd’s overall wellness and comfort in their new exhibit. I feel privileged to have the opportunity to care for Semba and soon her new calf. I can't wait to watch our visitors' faces when they see the new baby!”
