Cast Your Vote in Naming the New Baby Rhino

Busch Gardens Tampa Bay recently welcomed a male southern white rhino calf to the park’s crash (herd) of rhino, and we want your help in choosing his name!

The calf, born to an experienced mother, Kisiri, will join the diverse collection of African wildlife including zebra, ostrich, giraffe, and several antelope species that reside in the park’s expansive 65-acre Serengeti Plain. The southern white rhino is currently listed at near threatened status by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN). The recent addition to the park’s crash is part of Busch Gardens Tampa Bay’s participation in the Association of Zoos and Aquariums’ (AZA) Species Survival Plan® (SSP).
