Rolling Hills Zoo welcomed a male southern white rhino calf on Feb. 8, 2026, a conservation milestone amid ongoing poaching threats.
Rolling Hills Zoo in Kansas announced the birth of a male southern white rhino calf on February 8, 2026, to mother Evey, 19, and father Kengele, 27, both previously at The Wilds Safari Park in Ohio.
The pairing was part of the AZA’s Species Survival Plan to promote genetic diversity.
The calf and mother are bonding well, with staff monitoring them remotely as the rhino barn remains closed to the public.
Southern white rhinos, the second-largest land mammals, face ongoing threats from poaching, leading to a 9.8% population decline by 2025, with about 15,752 left in protected areas.
The species is classified as Near Threatened.
The birth is seen as a conservation milestone, with updates and photos to be shared via the zoo’s website and social media.
