Rose-Tu delivered a 286-pound baby boy just before 4:00 this afternoon. I wasn't at the zoo at the time, and won't be back until Monday, so I haven't gotten any firsst-hand reports yet.
R-2 was a bit aggressive toward the baby at first, so keepers moved in to separate the two. Examination showed a healthy young bull. Re-introduction will proceed soon.
Pics as soon as I can talk myself into the barn.
