There's a new baby at the Minnesota Zoo - a three-month-old dolphin calf.

At 60 pounds, she's already double her weight at birth.

If you visit, you'll also meet dolphin mom Allie and grandma April. Dad Semo, 45, is thought to be one of the oldest reproducing male dolphins.

Guess where we'll be this weekend?
