Up at the San Diego Wild Animal Park, the elephant herd welcomed another little one (relative to the size of the big ones) on May 12, making three new pachyderms this year. The Wild Animal Park is taking suggestions for naming the new one. See if you have what it takes to come up with an appropriate name for a 302-pound animal by going to Name the Calf.

If it helps you any, mom's name is Umoya, which means "Spirit" in Siswati, the language of Swaziland. Apparently the daddy is unknown. Names can be submitted in English but will be transalted into Siswati.

Name suggestions will be taken through July 25, name finalists will be posted on the Park's website in August for more voting, and the winner will be announced on August 26.

If you've never seen baby elephants, they looks like this:

The baby needing a name is just off to the left under its mommy, which is where it tended to stay, so that's the best picture I could get of it.
