Voters chose to name the Lincoln Park Zoo's new zebra Kito, which is swahili for jewel. The zoo says more than 2,400 votes were cast, and Kito won by a landslide. Kito and his mother Adia have been in private for the newborn's first week, but now they are on exhibit in the Antelope & Zebra area, so you can go see them whenever you want.
