Consider your Friday officially hump-graded! 🐪💙 Meet the newest addition to the herd, a male camel calf born Aug. 23 to mom Elham and dad Nico.

This little guy is already winning over his keepers and especially enjoys bottle feedings, staff interaction and plenty of scratches.

For now, he’ll remain behind the scenes as he continues to get acclimated to his new surroundings and keepers. Stay tuned for more updates!
