PHOENIX - A new four-legged friend arrived at the Phoenix Zoo.
Najuma, a four-year-old Grevy's zebra, from the San Diego Zoo Safari Park was sent to the Phoenix Zoo as part of the Species Survival Plan.
Najuma is to be paired with Tuari, a 14-year-old stallion that moved to the Phoenix Zoo in 2009.
Tuari's original home zoo was at the Reid Park Zoo in Tucson where he got his name.
According to the Phoenix Zoo's website, the Grevy's zebra is often referred to as the Regal Zebra.
