Premature Baby Hippo Fiona is 4 Months Old - Cincinnati Zoo
It’s hard to believe that Fiona is 4 months old! We celebrate how far she’s come in those few short months. She was born on January 24, six weeks premature and weighing only 29lbs. Average birth weight for a hippo is 55-100 pounds. She required 24-hour critical care for several months. During that time she gained millions of loyal fans that have been following her progress and rooting for her health. We can now say she is a healthy young hippo, weighing in at 254 pounds this morning, and has mastered the art of navigating deep water. She is interacting face to face with both of her parents daily through a protective barrier, working toward a family reunion in the future. We are hoping that visitors will be able to see her this summer and will keep you posted on when that might happen. We can’t wait to see what the next 4 months have in store!

With all the medical issues I have seeing this little baby makes me feel warmth and love all over for awhile. Thank you Fiona and zoo staff.
What do you have?
I wish you luck
@@fymf2011 medical issues
her eyes are bad and she cant see the baby hippo dum dumb @@yashkaran1
I wish you a fast and quick recovery after that terrifying bite
00:56 Can we all take a minute to appreciate the little muppet mouth it makes after trying to nom someone?
adorable
That’s now, oh how fast she grew
I came here just to see that clip lol
@@Hidfuskno i came here to see everything
That leg bite was the most vicious thing I’ve ever seen
lol dashie
She almost lost the leg.
It won’t be so adorable when it’s amphibious attack cow phase is complete
Just wait until it grows up and tries it again
Oh yes!!! I was positive that leg was going to have to come off lol
0:54 is the most precious nom I’ve seen
Omg it's so cute
Son of a bitch had it coming
Truly unspeakable savagery.
I literally play this constantly in my home for my kiddos and myself. We love that baby hippo chomp♡
The level of cuteness is off the charts!! ❤
You're absolutely right... How are you doing over there hope you're having a wonderful day.
Just wait until you two look at a baby pygmy hippo
♥
Seeing her with the tubes in her snout is heartbreaking. But seeing how happy she is in the water is makes it all worth it.
Fiona has come such a long way! Thank you to everyone that has taken care of her as she grows up. Can't wait to see her interact with her mom and dad.
She has already been interacting with them through a barrier. Once the vets and the keepers feel comfortable enough, Fiona will share the same enclosure as her parents.
Four legged babies are so cute. Amazing how she instinctively know to hold her breath under water.
1:46 Smelled those feet and died. :(
There is so much love and dedication by the staff to keeping that little preemie baby alive!! Fritz is cute but he can't hold a candle to his big sister Fiona and just seeing what a big, beautiful and healthy hippo she's grown into is just amazing. And that leg bite will never be forgotten by all of us who sat by our phones and computers day after day hoping that she would survive! That's an amazing family and they have provided us many years now of entertainment and happiness
Nothing brings me more joy than watching this
RIGHT????! It’s saved in my KZhead folder called“so you’re having a bad day...”

Fiona was the cutest baby Hippo I've ever seen!!!
She is 10 times cuter in person! 😍
You're absolutely right... How are you doing over there hope you're having a wonderful day.
@@dennisraymond881 yeah

It's remarkable how much sweet Fiona is thriving! (And how fast she seems to be growing!) Thank you for all your tireless efforts, and thank you for sharing with us.
Нас всех объединяет чувство любви к этому удивительному существу. Наблюдая за Фионой испытываешь чувства, которые исчезли из нашей жизни. Спасибо служителям зоопарка за возможность сопереживать, радоваться, умиляться и восхищаться этим чудом!

Fiona is soo cute, I love 💘 the way she expresses her gratitude with her little mouth 💕💗💖💓❤♥. Oh she's just GORGEOUS 😍
Fiona and her team have overcome her being a preemie. Congratulations to you all. I'm not sure I could leave her to let her go out with Bibi and Henry and be a hippo. She is so sweet!
It’s so cute when he or she rolled in the water😃
Cute hippo bay, taking shower and drinking water at the time... Such an incredible swimmer... One day he/she will become a huge giant... God bless the zoo/sanctuary for taking care of this hippo baby
Fiona's gratitude still shows five & a half years later. She's still a big baby.
Isn't she fabulous? I love that little girl. BRAVO to her ACE CARE TEAM. :o)
She is the highlight of 2017 thus far. (ಥ﹏ಥ) She is so cute...she always makes me tear up a little. I would fly from California just to see her! I love you Fi! Keep growing strong!
I'd drive from Texas to go on a date with you

This is the most beautiful baby animal that I have ever seen on youtube! And I have seen many things on this youtoube platform at liest 10 years.
