Things are looking good for these two, maybe Chester will have a baby Indian Rhino in a year or so time if they mate successfully.
 
Presenting 'Beni' & 'Asha'. This is the first photo I have seen of these two together. They are perfectly matched too, with the bull bigger than the cow-so he will be mature soon and large enough to cover her properly.

The bull is already mature, he is eight years old already. The cow is nearly five and breeding in the wild does tend to start at between four to six years old, so she is mature.
