The rhino zoomies<\/a> in this cute TikTok clip are out of control, and the music certainly helps set the mood. This baby has found his stride, and we get to watch him go back and forth a few times with great enthusiasm.<\/p>\n

The on-screen text gets us into the vibe, “You’ve seen puppy zoomies…. But have you ever seen baby rhino zoomies?” It exceeded even our wildest dreams.<\/p>\n

We weren’t the only ones who could hardly believe the cuteness. @Jana agreed with, “I never knew how much I needed to see this until I saw it!!” So true. Others, like @Caitlyn, remarked on the baby’s adorableness, “OMG, this is the cutest thing ever.” This quip from @Sandra Molloy had us laughing, “This is what the internet should be for.” Everything else on the internet doesn’t belong.<\/p>\n

Viewer @Tashia continued the comparison in the video, “That\u2019s an English Bulldog<\/a> fr.” If you squint, you might confuse them. Finally, @#Us really understood the rhino baby, “This is the kind of happiness we’re all trying to reach.”<\/p>\n

All About Baby Rhinos<\/p>\n

Well, we’ve already established that these oddly-proportioned little guys love zoomies and get a 10 in cuteness. Those aren’t the only fun facts about rhinos<\/a>, though. Once upon a time, rhinos roamed much of the earth, including Africa, southeast Asia, North America, and Europe. Today, there are only 27,000 left in the wild across five species (10 subspecies total). The International Rhino Foundation<\/a> explains the issue, “The greatest threats to rhinos are poaching, habitat loss, and for some species, isolated small populations unable to reproduce.”<\/p>\n

Bringing new rhinos into the world helps with their conservation, even when those babies live in captivity. The Whipsnade Zoo<\/a>, where this small but mighty one lives, breeds rhinos to keep genetic diversity alive within endangered rhino species. Someday, these horned beauties could be reintroduced into the wild<\/a>. In the meantime, scientists study the current residents to get a better idea on how to protect them. There are currently four babies under five years old at the zoo, a huge win for everyone.<\/p>\n
