He arrived at the zoo in October 2012 from the Brevard Zoo in Melbourne, Florida to join females Laptop and Ajabu in the zoo's Trails of Africa exhibit. He is considered a potential mate for the females as part of the Species Survival Plan, a program of the Association of Zoos and Aquariums to help conserve rhinos and other animals.
