Description I dedicate this photo to
I hope this is a wonderful surprise for you!

Zola "Auntie" got her first baby sometime in february 2011 at Zoo Duisburg. This photo was taken on his third journey to the outdoor exhibit in march 2011. Do not steal!

Did you know?
-Bongos are african antelopes which live in rainforests of Kongo.
-They are endangered and not much is known about them.
-Females and males have both horns, but males grow longer horns and have a darker fur color.
- Since bongos eat leaves, not grass, their food in the zoo contains (next to fruits and vegetables and pellets) lucerne/alfalfa which is not hay (dry grass) but more like dry leaves.
