Happy 3rd birthday to the most famous rhino in the world (well, one of the 2 most famous rhinos in the world - Sita and Zuri). It doesn't seem possible that it's 2 years ago today that ChrisP, JaneG and I were celebrating your 1st birthday with you, feeding you apples and being interviewed by the TV stations! xxx
Good day everyone was wondering about the size difference between the white rhino and the black rhino and are they found in the same region or habitat.
thanks Dan
2.59p.m. Just thought I'd quickly log on to see if my 2 favourite rhinos were about and there they are! Zuri is busy playing with something that is hanging up in the enclosure - can't make out what it is. Hope everyone at Paignton zoo had a good Christmas.
Zuri is so big now that the only way I can tell which rhino is her and which is Sita is by looking at their horns, but I don't think it will be long before Zuri's horns are as big as her mum's.
Saw two rhinos! After feeding hours! Amazing!
Currently watching Dorothy the Rhino, like a hawk, as she may give birth anytime soon, during December!
Have just found these Cams through Zena and Zia, the tigers at Isle of Wight Zoo.
Not a lot of activity in this weather, but then I was lead to the Penguins! They don't seem to mind the cold.
Bird Cams are silent, as is my own Feeding Station.
I love this stuff!
Let's have more!!
Like CarolW it's great to see they are still getting on together, can't believe Zuri is nearly 2 and a half! I wonder if Dad Kingo will be returning any time soon.
It's great that Sita and Zuri are still together despite Zuri being 2 and a half now, and Zuri still seems to follow her mum everywhere! Love to you both - maybe I'll see you in the flesh again one day.
Meet Sita, a 16 year old, rare, Black Rhinoceros at Paignton Zoo, Devon, England, and her calf Zuri, who was born Monday 5 March 2007, as featured on the BBC's websites.
The Black Rhinos are native to the eastern and central areas of Africa, including Kenya, Tanzania, Cameroon, South Africa, Namibia and Zimbabwe. Although the Rhino is referred to as black, it is actually more of a grey/brown/white colour in appearance.
The best time to see Sita and Zuri is at feeding time 1.00pm GMT, although they tend to pop in throughout the day. So keep watching and they will appear.
Please note that this camera is only live between 9.00am to 7.00pm GMT.
Climate Details are not available for this camera.
From the cute and cuddly to farmyard friends and close encounters of a crawly kind, all the animals you meet, groom and hold at Crealy love people especially children and can't wait to meet you!
