A male waterbuck calf born several months ago at the Ramat Gan Safari in Israel has become a major attraction due to its exceptionally sweet appearance and a distinctive heart-shaped marking on its nose. Waterbuck are naturally shy and cautious animals, and the first few months of a calf's life are challenging. In the safari's open African savanna enclosure, shared with zebras, rhinos, and hippos, young calves must learn to navigate their environment, cope with various stimuli, and stay close to their mothers. Fortunately, this young calf has successfully passed its sensitive initial months. It has grown stronger and can now be seen roaming the savanna with its mother. Safari staff are closely monitoring its development, noting that it remains as endearing as ever, retaining its sweet look and the small heart on its nose, which has made it a favorite among visitors. The Ramat Gan Safari is also home to a young Persian leopard named Dani, who arrived from Sweden as part of a European breeding program for the endangered subspecies.
