Endangered southern white rhino Kimba gets a 10-day rest before starting his new duties.
Zurich zookeepers hope Kimba can work some pachyderm magic in Switzerland with three sisters. They're fertile, according to the zoo, and Kimba is on touring stud duty.
"Kimba survived the trip well. He was calm and relaxed yesterday evening and was particularly interested in his food. Kimba now has time to get used to his new environment and the new zookeepers," said Severin Dressen, the Zurich Zoo's director. The Zurich zoo hopes Kimba will be comfortable enough to produce offspring. His species is on the International Union for Conservation of Nature’s Red List, which it uses to track threatened species.Kimba was born in the Knowsley Safari Park near Liverpool, England in 2008, but moved to a zoo in Lille, France at age 3. He has been in Germany since 2016., a sanctuary for the endangered black and white rhinos and other African animals at the foothills of Mount Kenya.
