One Giant Step for Lucas...
Lucas, a four-year-old penguin at the San Diego Zoo, has new pep in
his step, thanks to a pair of orthopedic footwear. Designed to combat
a case of chronic bumblefoot, the snazzy sandal-like shoes were
created through a partnership between SDZWA and Thera-paw, a company
specializing in assistive products for special-needs animals. Now
Lucas can put both of his best feet forward!

First-time mom Livia, a southern white rhino at the Safari Park's
Nikita Kahn Rhino Rescue Center, gave birth to a male calf late last
month, and both are doing quite well! Wildlife care specialists report
the calf, named Neville, is healthy, confident and full of energy, and
