Officials with Zoo Knoxville have announced the death of Dolly the Rhinoceros, according to a report from WATE.

Dolly was 56 years old.

They put her down over there at the zoo because her mobility had gotten bad.

She had been at the zoo since 1976 after living her early years in South Africa.

Dolly was the oldest rhinoceros in the entire United States.

The zoo said she was a good mother, having raised 10 calves.

Very sad news. Pour one out.
