Flamingo Land are delighted to announce the arrival of two black rhinos from Zurich on September 23rd, 2015. Samira (the mother) and baby Olmoti (born last December) will be the first inhabitants of our new Selous Black Rhino Reserve. After a day or 2 settling into their new home, they will be greeting visitors. Moving a mother and baby calf together is an incredibly rare event and they join us as part of an international breeding programme. Development of the Selous Black Rhino Reserve represents significant habitat research by our zoo team and a substantial £1.6m investment by Flamingo Land. It features an extensive, naturally sympathetic, multi-terrain environment, a giant centrally heated Rhino house and a high-level public access platform, allowing visitors to enjoy great views both inside and out. – See more at: http://www.flamingoland.co.uk/news/498-flamingo-land-resort-welcomes-new-black-rhinos.html#sthash.m6F9P8yG.dpuf
