In case anyone interested, here is the story of Fiona, the almost famous / semi famous hippo from the Cincinnati Zoo who had to be taken in by Zoo vets for a couple of months before being re introduced to her parents after she was born 6 weeks early and unable to survive without medical help

Great story. Thanks for posting that. I had no idea that little Fiona even existed.
Here's to the people at the Cincinnati zoo.

Hey, I had no idea Fiona existed until yesterday either when I read about her on CNN I think.
Thought I'd post it since even Terbites need a little break once in a while from tossing snowballs at each other all the time.
Anyway, glad someone liked the story

baby animal pictures always welcome. Didn't know baby hippos can be this small considering their massive size
Apparently 3,000 pounds when fully grown.
There are other videos on youtube. I was very glad that her parents (and especially her mother) have accepted her. She missed that key moment in time to bond with her mother.
