VIDEO: Denver Zoo's One-Horned Rhino Plays The Piano

Denver Zoo's greater one-horned rhino has a very special talent. The rhino, named Bandhu, is celebrating his 12th birthday today, May 18.

To help celebrate the Denver Zoo posted a video of Bandhu showing off his piano skills.

"Happy Birthday, Bandhu! 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," wrote the zoo in a Facebook post. "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. Look out for Bandhu in Toyota Elephant Passage on your next visit to Denver Zoo!"

According to the Denver Zoo website, greater one-horned rhinoceros uses the prehensile lip to curl around the tall grasses, leaves, and shrubs they eat - and for Bandhu, to play the piano.

Males like Bandhu, are usually larger than females weighing anywhere from 4,000 to 6,000 pounds.

Bandhu was born on May 18, 2009, and is one of the three greater one-horned rhinos in the Denver Zoo's Toyota Elephant Passage.

The other two are mother and daughter Tensing, who was born on November 1, 2007, and her calf Joona who was born through artificial insemination on February 22, 2020.
