There was a birthday party at Mesker Park Zoo on Sunday.
Rocco, a greater kudu antelope, celebrated his 9th birthday.
Greater Kudus have a lifespan of 7 to 8 years in the wild and up to 23 years in captivity.
Mesker Park Officials say his species is known for rubbing its horns in mud, grass, and bushes.
These behaviors can serve many purposes including helping their status with the ladies.
Rocco can be found in the African panorama near the front of the zoo.
