We recently went on a homeschool field trip to Lion Country Safari with our Classical Conversations group. One of the things that is so great about Lion Country Safari is that you can drive thru their safari area in your own vehicle and see the animals up close. Some even come up to your car!
Baby on my mind since I am 7 months pregnant my heart melted when I saw this mama rhino and her 1 year old baby, Blossom together. Where mama went baby followed. What a sweet thing to watch.
“The baby, named Blossom, was born to mom Bloom after 16 months of gestation. It’s unusual for a white rhino to give birth during the day; they are usually born at night. It is expected for Blossom to gain 3-4 pounds a day from her mother’s milk, and will gain about a thousand pounds a year for the first three years. Baby rhinos nurse for almost two years.”

So sweet! Even when I am not pregnant Mama’s & Babies still get to me…..I would love for you to link up with me at Monday of Many Blessings Link Up!
They are such magnificent animals… My hometown is famous for one horned rhinos… It’s too bad that they often become victim of poachers
They are so neat looking. Very prehistoric! They look like they could fit in with the dinosaurs.
What amazing animals! Can’t believe how big the baby is.
Aww, this is such a sweet photo!
Thanks for sharing!

I love Rhinos!! I was lucky to go on Safari in Madikwe, South Africa. The baby rhinos were my favorite! I loved that they would sleep in the middle of the roads. Your picture is so sweet.
Wow! Big baby! I went to Lion Country Safari as a kid. 🙂 Glad to know it’s still there. Have a great end to your week!
Awww what a lovely capture!
Awww what a beautiful photo! Last time I was at the Zoo I saw a Mama gorilla with her tiny baby and it was adorable! He followed her where ever she went too but I think she was getting annoyed haha
Lion Country Safari seems wonderful to visit. My kids would have loved that! I would enjoy seeing all the beautiful animals.
great capture! Mama and baby rhino surely have a lovely day..
