"Aquila teams sat and watched as the adorable new addition to the herd was personally greeted by each female zebra over the course of an hour, like a new born royal!
"Even as mum snorted and tried to chase them away, the zebras remained undeterred, going so far as to boop the baby on his nose.

"Aquila plans to introduce more buffalo to the herd over the next few months, to strengthen and broaden the genetic pool," it said.
"So, we’re holding thumbs for more youngsters!"
