Adorable baby hippo plays with parents for the first time

2019-03-08 31

Little Fiona was born six weeks early in January weighing just 29lbs, while healthy babies usually tip the scales at 55-120lbs. The cute calf was introduced to her mother Bibi a few weeks ago and has previously had contact with her dad Henry in an indoor enclosure. But heartwarming footage shows all three of the happy hippos spending time together as a family for the first time. The hippos swim, play and splash about in a water pool that is part of Hippo Cove at Cincinnati Zoo in Cincinnati, Ohio.
