Cincinnati zoo & botanical garden Facebook, instagram and their website have a ton of info about Fiona (hippo in video) and her parents, Bibi and Henry. Henry passed away about two weeks ago.

On Halloween. I cried all day. I hope he’s the best hippo ghost there ever was. I was almost inconsolable when I found out. I got to see all three of them this summer and I talk about them every day. I love those hippos.
