SOUTHWEST MIAMI-DADE, FLA. (WSVN) - Zoo Miami has welcomed a new addition to its animal family: an endangered baby camel.

Zoo officials said the critically endangered Bactrian camel was born over the weekend and weighed in at just over 96 pounds.

The calf was given a neonatal exam the next day and appears to be doing well as it bonds alongside its mother.
