A six-week-old male southern white rhino at the San Diego Zoo Safari Park has been named Neville.

The baby rhino was born on August 6th of this year and has gained enough stamina and bulk that it can now explore the 2-acre main habitat. He has been seen splashing around and rolling in mud. Rhinos coat themselves with a layer of mud that acts as sunscreen, bug repellent and keeps them cool. Neville currently weighs 250 pound and can grow to be between 4000 and 5000 pounds at around 3 years of age.
