Zoo celebrates Spring with new arrival

Taronga Western Plains Zoo has welcomed a female Zebra foal named Zahra, meaning flower in Swahili. Zahra was born in the early hours of the morning on Saturday 26 September 2009.

 

Unlike modern horses, the Przewalski Horse cannot be domesticated and have great powers of endurance and are able to withstand harsh environmental conditions.
