Baby rhinos were put on this earth for one reason only: to make humans on the internet smile. 。
On October 11th, Ayana, a rhino at Blank Park Zoo in Des Moines, Iowa, gave birth to a rare baby black rhino, weighing in at 80 lbs. The zoo recently released a video of the yet-to-be-named baby rhino, prompting the internet to immediately lose its sh*t. 。

Eastern black rhinos are an endangered species, and female black rhinos are even more rare. There are currently less than 1,000 in the wild and in captive populations combined. 。
Thanks for signing up!。 "Her reproductive potential is quite high and, hopefully, she will contribute greatly to the overall population," Susan Ellis, director of the International Rhino Foundation, told 。The Des Moines Register 。
