LOUISVILLE- For the first time in over a decade, a pair of Louisville Zebras are parents.

The Zoo's Hartmann's Zebras Morena and Gibbs are the parents of the 72 pound foal born January 18 at 2:45 a.m.

The foal was quick to her feet, taking her first steps 30 minutes after birth and nursing minutes after that.

Mother Morena and foal are doing fine and visitors can expect to see the new foal on exhibit in the coming weeks, weather permitting.
