7/16/2018 BREAKING NEWS: (not really but we had to try) ROCKY Births her 11th Pup

Interesting day today..... Actually interesting couple of days in the Where's Rocky RH58?  Where will she give Birth? When will it happen?   What I find interesting is the RUSH to get the news out there.
Of course she has a huge fan base, after last year's birth on Kaimana Beach on Oahu.  

Here are few of the links I was able to pull off of social media, the earliest report of the birth was somewhere around noon, but that Rocky had arrived on Kauai hit the the morning newspaper.
I know as many wanted to know where Rocky was, there were a large group of folks wanting to try and keep the news quiet until Rocky and pup had a chance to settle in, and the volunteer group had a chance to pull together their resources and schedule.   

So here are all the links and in closing I will ask everyone to be respectful to the Kauai Team and  Rocky RH58,  a wild endangered species, her pup a gift of nature and all the hard work that goes into protecting this species.
