A Cincinnati zoo has welcomed a brand-new eastern black rhinoceros into the world, born healthy on the evening of Aug. 21. This is a huge win for the species, as they are currently listed as critically endangered.

The Cincinnati Zoo & Botanical Garden’s communication director, Michelle Curley, announced that the calf was born at 6:30 p.m. last Friday.
