Adorable Black Duiker Born at the San Diego Zoo
An rare black duiker, Rashidi, was recently born at the San Diego Zoo. The young duiker, whose name means "rightly guided" in Afrikaans, is 7 weeks old and weighs 17 pounds. The species is near threatened in the wild, mainly due to natural predators and agricultural burn off, making this birth at the San Diego Zoo significant for the genetics of the species. sandiegozoo.org
