The Dallas Zoo is celebrating the birth of a new klipspringer, a small member of the antelope family which is native to east Africa.

The baby named Mitzi was born in May but the zoo is releasing the first photos of the newcomer. Mitzi is the first klipspringer born at the Dallas Zoo in 23 years.

At the other end of the spectrum, zookeepers are celebrating the 24th birthday of Saba, the oldest member of the Dallas Zoo klipspringer family.

They threw Saba a nice birthday bash with some special klipspringer treats.
