Baby pygmy hippos

[rose_cat]

This is Monifa, which means "lucky," at three weeks of age. She was born at the Taronga Park Zoo, but it was a difficult birth, and her mother was having a hard time of it afterwards, so Monifa was hand-raised.

Here's Monifa again, at eight weeks, having her very first swim.

This is Sapo, three months old, with his mum Flora, at the ZSL Whipsnade Zoo.
