The Cincinnati Zoo has a new baby hippo!
He is brother to the very famous Fiona, and they have a poll going to choose his name - Fritz or Ferguson. You can vote here: Vote for Baby Hippo Name - Cincinnati Zoo & Botanical Garden®
And feel free to share what you voted for, or what name you would’ve chosen if you could pick any name!
[name_m]Fritz[/name_m] is great with [name_f]Fiona[/name_f]! [name_u]Love[/name_u] it!
Those names are so cute! What a lovely little hippo!
[name_m]Ferguson[/name_m] gets my vote! Given free reign I would have gone for [name_u]Callum[/name_u] or [name_m]Lachlan[/name_m] but the matching initials are undeniably cute.
He is soooooo cute! I like [name_m]Fritz[/name_m].
[name_m]Fritz[/name_m]
I’m a former zookeeper and in a zookeeper group on FB - I’ll find out which name his keepers prefer and post it here 
[name_m]Fritz[/name_m] would be so cute 
I love it when zoos do this, it’s so fun! I can’t wait to see what his name will be!
[name_m]Fritz[/name_m] is so sweet and cute sounds great with [name_f]Fiona[/name_f]. [name_m]Ferdinand[/name_m] would just be adorable though, but maybe a bit on the nose.
[name_m]Fritz[/name_m] 
Update: they went with [name_m]Fritz[/name_m]!
“We would have been happy with either name, but we really think the name Fritz fits this spunky little guy’s personality,” said Cincinnati Zoo’s head hippo keeper Wendy Rice. “We also thought it was funny that it was suggested because ‘Fritz’ is here due to Bibi’s birth control being ‘on the fritz’.”
Haha!
Hippos have birth control. Who knew!
