Rhino Calf Welcomed at Allwetter Zoo

One and a half years ago, Jane, a 13-year-old Southern White Rhinoceros, came to the Allwetter Zoo in Münster, Germany from the Scottish Blair Drummond Safari Park and was introduced to the zoo’s bull Rhino, Harry. The two Rhinos got along well and after a 16 month gestation, Jane delivered her first calf, a male, on May 23.

Visit ZooBorns to learn more about the calf and to see adorable photos of mom and baby!

Rare Southern Tamandua Born at Buffalo Zoo

A group of Southern Tamanduas was imported to the United States last August as part of an effort to bolster the population in US zoos. A pair named Olive and Brutus were placed at the Buffalo Zoo.

Not much is known about the reproductive behaviors of this species, but Olive and Brutus had their first pup on April 7. The male baby, named Otis, is strong, alert and very vocal.

See and learn more about this rare species at ZooBorns.

Here’s an absolutely fascinating project playing out on Instagram, and turning litter-cleanup into fun creative game of sorts:

How an Instagram Hashtag is Helping to Clean up the Environment:

Using the hashtag #litterati, [Jeff Kirschner has] managed to start a world-wide Instagram campaign that is helping to stop pollution and clean up the environment one piece of trash at a time.

…

Using [this Instagram account], he would photograph each piece of trash he picked up over the course of the day, hashtagging the photos as he went. Pretty soon others caught on…

Now, Instagram users everywhere can join the movement by taking a photo of the couple of pieces of trash they pick up each day. It may not seem like you’re making much of a difference, but the over 10,000 photos from 22 countries uploaded under the #litterati hashtag last year illustrate just how powerful the collective impact can be.

Kirschner has stared a Litterati website complete with a “Digital Landfill” that aggregates all of the photos hashtagged #litterati, keeping statistics as it goes.

That’s so cool. It makes me wish we could figure out a way to do something similar encouraging acts & moments of #unconsumption.
