JUPITER, Fla. Plenty of socially distant things to do outside this weekend including rhinos, rodeo, fair, Mutt Derby, and the exploration of the Palm Beaches' hidden spaces.

1) Baby Rhino first birthday party - Loxahatchee

On Saturday, Jan. 30 Lion Country Safari is hosting a birthday party for a rare South white rhino named Elna. The venue will place enrichments out around noon that look like birthday presents. Guests should arrive around 11 a.m. to get to the zebra and rhino area out on safari. One year ago she weighed 100 lbs. but a year later she weighs around 1100 lbs. WPTV NewsChannel 5 did witness Elna throwing two full-sized rhinos out of her pre-party on Thursday. She wanted her enrichments of hay all to herself.
