Press release from the Cheyenne Mountain Zoo :
August 25, 2021
Join us for a 5-week check-in with our beloved baby boy hippo. He and his mom, Zambezi, continue to bond well, and have even been exploring the main hippo yard together. Little baby hippo is weighing in at more than 160 pounds now! He's gaining about a pound a day.
He's also starting to grow his tusks and is beginning to interact with his keeper team. Water's Edge: Africa lead keeper, Phil, fills us in on the latest from the hippo building, where baby and Zambezi have been joining him for afternoon meals daily.
The team is working on choosing a name for the baby hippo, and we'll share that as soon as we can.
