TL;DR Summary

Tikiti Maji, a baby Grevy's zebra born on Christmas at Reid Park Zoo in Arizona, died after suffering a neck injury when her mother, Anna, was startled by a gust of wind, causing the foal to hit a fence. The zoo staff, who had modified the zebra habitat to make barriers more visible before Tikiti's birth, are devastated by the loss. Grevy's zebras are an endangered species, with fewer than 2,500 remaining in the wild, and the zoo will provide extra care to Anna as she grieves the loss of her foal.
