WATCH: Zoo hosts gender reveal party for endangered Indian rhino
Last month, we introduced you to margin an endangered Indian rhino calf and the first ever natural rhino birth with *** mom born from artificial insemination. But as big of *** deal as its birth was technical director, Matt Fowle says Friday was another big day for Mama Monica John's gender reveal party. Monica is going to do the real deal for us. We've got *** box in her enclosure and so the hope is she's gonna come up to the box and start shaking it and then we'll get the reveal of whether it's *** boy or *** girl. After stopping for *** quick snack, Monica slowly walks up to the curious box, her caretakers put in the middle of her pen and of course, little margin has to see what's going on after just *** little bit of struggle um pulls out that big piece of blue paper, probably not supposed to eat the paper. The proud mom looks straight at the small crowd while standing next to margin almost as if she knows exactly what's going on, but not for long. It's time for seconds while Marjan continues to nurse and explore his little indoor home. It won't be long before he learns there's *** whole world outside waiting for him and felt says when that happens, you won't want to miss it. Come out and see him *** ton this summer because he is incredibly cute. So get your season.

WATCH: Zoo hosts gender reveal party for endangered Indian rhino
A zoo in Kansas recently welcomed a new addition, an endangered Indian rhino calf. The Indian rhino calf was the first ever natural rhino birth with a mom born from artificial insemination. As big of a deal as its birth was, Tanganyika Wildlife Park Director Matt Fouts said Friday was another big day for Monica: Marjon’s gender reveal party. Watch video of the gender reveal party in the video player above. “Monica is going to do the reveal for us. We’ve got a box in her enclosure. And so the hope is, she’s going to come up to the box and start shaking it, and then we’ll get the reveal of whether it’s a boy or a girl,” Fouts told KAKE. After stopping for a quick snack, Monica slowly walked up to the curious box that her caretakers put in the middle of her pen. And, of course, Marjon had to see what was going on. After just a little bit of struggle, Monica pulled out a big piece of blue paper.

While Marjon continues to nurse and explore his little indoor home, it won’t be long before he learns there’s a whole world outside waiting for him. Fouts said when that happens, you won’t want to miss it. The park opens for the year on Saturday, March 11.
