Cincinnati Zoo's Bibi the hippo gives birth to a baby
Fox News
Bibi the hippo gave birth to her second baby on Wednesday at the Cincinnati Zoo and Botanical Garden after undergoing labor earlier this week.
"This calf looks huge to us because Fiona, Bibi’s first baby, only weighed 29 pounds when she was born six weeks premature and wasn’t able to stand on her own," said zoo director Christina Gorsuch in a statement.
On Tuesday, the hippo team noticed that Bibi began to display signs that she was undergoing labor due to her restlessness and preference for the indoors. For the next two weeks, she will bond with her newborn privately while being closely monitored by officials.
