Ami Vitale. Fatu.
By Ami Vitale
Fatu, one of the last two northern white rhinos on the planet, is daughter to Najin, and the granddaughter of Sudan.
Fatu is crazy about water and the rain. Her head picks up, her ears are pricked and she runs off with her southern white rhino best friend Tauwa to the mud pits to wallow. She loves being in standing water.
She sleeps beside her best friend Tauwa. While the friendship is adorable, occasionally her mother, Najin, has to nudge the two girls back in line with her horn when they get a little too rambunctious.
