CINCINNATI – Look out Fiona, there’s a new baby in town! Well, soon.

The Cincinnati Zoo's black rhino, Seyia, had an ultrasound that showed that her fetus has moved into the correct position for birth; the baby's feet are in front of the head, which is pointing in the right direction.

Earlier in June, zoo officials announced Faru, the baby's father, donated plasma to its unborn calf.
