Daisy spends the day in the grassy camps with Zuri, Jock, Aquazi, and Mavic. However, as Daisy is still drinking milk, care givers need to strategically call her away from the others to feed her. Caregiver Bennet is one of Daisy’s favorites and knows that when he calls her, it means milk! Daisy still drinks 4L of milk at each feed. Modjadji is also familiar with the caregivers’ calls and is quick to assist when the tractor arrives to deliver bales for the rhinos. As winter nears, Modjadji will also make use of the supplementary food. Zebras and rhinos, both hind gut fermenters, share a diet of similar grasses.
