A newborn antelope which is one of the smallest in the world was born in Scotland.

The Kirk’s dik-dik calf was born at Edinburgh Zoo and will measure 40cm when full grown.

There are five of the Bambi-like creatures, including parents Noodle and Drax.



Keepers at the wildlife conservation charity named the tiny female youngster Petal.

She can be spotted exploring Edinburgh Zoo’s African Aviary enclosure with mum, Noodle, by her side.



Kirk’s dik-diks are native to the grasslands of Eastern Africa.

Growing to a height of just 40cm, they are one of the smallest species of antelope in the world.
