Animals at zoos and aquariums across the United States are getting into the Halloween mood, just like their human counterparts. Fiona, a juvenile hippo from the Cincinnati Zoo, is no exception. You might get a big smile on your face as you watch her get ready to celebrate this frightful event.
This recording was released on the Cincinnati Zoo’s official Instagram account on October 30. “Fiona is all dressed up for Halloween!” reads the caption that accompanied the photo. “Fiona got a smaller pumpkin that was more her size, and Bibi got a full-size pumpkin,” it continues. Bibi is seen smashing the pumpkin in one bite. Fiona will one day be able to expand her mouth 150 degrees wide like her mother.” Along with the video, the hashtag #TeamFiona was used. If you aren’t already on Team Fiona, you will be after watching this video.
Wasn’t that absolutely the cutest thing you’ve ever seen? If that’s what you’re thinking, you’re not alone.
The post has received over 56,100 views and numerous positive comments since it was uploaded on the photo and video sharing platform.
