The Indianapolis Zoo has introduced its newest resident, Calypso, an Atlantic bottlenose dolphin. She was born at the zoo to mother Kalei and father Kimo April 24.

Calypso weighed 39 pounds when she was born, and has already grown to more than 70 pounds. Zoo officials say she is the granddaughter of Nova, the matriarch of the dolphin pod.
Staff monitored Kalei and Calypso 24 hours a day, seven days a week for the first month. The veterinary team also conducted important medical checks and daily monitoring.
Calypso will not be available for zoo visitors to see in the underwater viewing dome in the Dolphin Pavilion for several months yet.
