It's a Girl!

Knowsley Safari Park, UK, celebrates the birth of Binta, a female rhino, after "a rash" of male births this year. (Link)

This was the park's first birth of a female white rhino. (You can recognize both rhinos in the link's photo as "whites" by the "wide" upper lip, all the better for biting off wide swaths of grass; the black rhino has a prehensile upper lip, all the better for "grabbing" and ripping out clumps of grass.)
