Endangered Zebra Born at Zoo Miami

An endangered zebra that was born at Zoo Miami made its exhibit debut Tuesday.

The male Grevy's zebra was born Thursday after a gestation period of 13 months and weighed in at 102 pounds, zoo officials said.

The zebra was given a few days to bond with his mother before joining the exhibit. It's the 17th successful birth of the endangered species at Zoo Miami.

Grevy's zebras are the largest species of zebras and come from the horn of Africa in Kenya and Ethiopia.
