Samudra is going to be a big brother late next year.
The zoo announced yesterday morning that Rose-tu is pregnant with her second calf. Father is Tusko again.

I'm really hoping the next calf is a girl!

It's not very big right now. It's only 1.5 acres. But renovations will start sometime to make it 6 acres. As well as a large offsite area, kinda like the sanctuary in Tennessee.

Nice, hope they don't steal room from the other animals too much

Sadly they are. They're taking away wolves to put elephants in there. I think the zoo is moving to less animals but giving them more space. The current wolf exhibit sucks but I don't know if the zoo plans on bringing back wolves.

They need diversity to make it interesting. Oliphants and eleks are nice but we need fuzzy critters too.
