WATCH: Viral video shows Denver Zoo rhino playing keyboard on his 12th birthday
DENVER – Next stop, Carnegie Hall?
A Denver Zoo rhino is gaining viral fame for an unusual skill: playing the keyboard.
According to KCNC, the Colorado attraction shared a video of Bandhu, a greater one-horned rhino, showing off his musical talent on his 12th birthday Tuesday.
“Happy Birthday, Bandhu!” the zoo captioned the clip. “Our resident male greater one-horned rhino turns 12 today! It might be his birthday, but Bandhu wanted to treat you all to a special song he wrote all by himself. Using his prehensile lip to compose a tune is just one of the many ways we can use enrichment to mentally and physically stimulate the birthday boy.”
