Native to the dense forests of Southern Africa, the nyala is shy antelope that rarely ventures out of thick cover. This tiny male calf was born the morning of October 20th at the Houston Zoo and this video was taken just moments later. Watch him take his shaky first steps.

Dear little fella, love his long spindly wobbly legs.
Here only moments and expected to get up and walk.
Then figure out where he is and who are his companions.... especially his Mum and the horse going by in striped pj's.
