It's A Girl: RWP Zoo Names Baby Anteater 'Demo'

PROVIDENCE, RI — The newest addition Roger Williams Park Zoo animal family officially has a name. On Wednesday, the zoo announced that the baby anteater born two months ago is a girl, named Demo.

"Demo" is a combination of her parents' names: Delilah and Mochilla. She was born on Sept. 4 and stayed out of the public enclosures for several weeks as she grew and bonded with her mother.

Even though she is capable of walking and running on her own, Demo will spend up to a year hitching a ride on Delilah's back, the zoo said.
