I was very glad to hear Dan address the relationship topic. Meaning (to use his words) human "selfish desire to maintain the current relationship with Fiona..." but that is not what is best for her". Her care team deserve so much credit for handling Fiona and her needs in the most unselfish way imaginable.

@ Yes!!! And many exotic wild animals die, live in horrible conditions in private residences, and end up in captivity for life because people selfishly take them from the wild where they should and need to be and try to make them their house pets! Not to mention how may innocent people are killed or maimed.

I agree, I think that they truly wanted what was best for her and you can see them walking the line extremely well by taking themselves out of the picture more and more and taking those "leaps of faith" reintroducing her to bb and Henry etc. They really bring up a good point about the imprinting time period for hippos and how important that is. I know that they can never know for sure, but I would like to believe that bb knew Fiona was hers❤️❤️

@@everydaycliche1529 I would like to think Bibi did also. She seemed to know that she couldn't care for Fiona since she was easily distracted with food which allowd keepers in to assess and finally intervene. Normally not even a favorite food would have distracted a mother from her calf and to the extent keepers were allowed in to handle Fiona. But there were a couple of hrs before keepers intervened that would have given both Fiona and Bibi to become familiar with at least their scents. And Fiona's area was kept close to the enclosure so she could get used to the sounds and smells. I would imagine but am not positive Bibi could have still picked up on Fiona's scent from time to time. And you are right. They did an outstanding job walking that fine line. That could not have been easy for them but they always made sure what they did was what was best for Fiona.

But do we know the route of a migration that is thousands of kilometres long. Do newborn babies know how to do such a migration. Monarch butterflies and many other fascinating animals and insects travel such long distances and how they do it there are theories but it’s not how they do it that’s the matter it’s more important to see how and the power in how these animals are being inspired by some way. Instinct okay but that’s basically for believers in God, God inspiring them because to travel such a long way without ever having gone that route before without ever getting majorly lost and knowing when the storms come and the shortcuts etc is all extremely precise and complex. Indeed these are signs for those who understand.

The closest comparison I could make would be pre installed software on a computer. The easiest way to explain it is that somehow DNA codes for specific neural networks to form within the brain at an early stage of development which define basic behaviors that we loosely term 'instincts'. The same way we cannot explain exactly why cats seem to react with apoplexy towards something as mundane as a cucumber without infering that pre formed neural networks are causing it to identify the shape as a danger - probably because it resembles a snake.

It always sounded to me like BB has a pretty good maternal instinct. Some animals have it, some don’t. BB may or may not have realized Fiona was her baby, but she sure knew Fiona was a baby that had no other adult mom hippo with her. So BB went ahead and filled in that role. Plus you guys gave them enough time to safely bond which obviously really helped

Fiona is so extremely lucky that she was born in a place where her needs and wellbeing are all that matters. From sleeping with her as a newborn to letting her go and be with her parents, her keepers were willing to do it all. She can expect a happy hippo life with the best care and best hippo environment she can be given and Cincinnati zoo keepers are the reason for that. Wonderful people.

Fiona is just the cutest little baby doll hippo. We don't see many videos of humans and their hippos. So these videos are a real gem for many of us. I myself, have NEVER had the opportunity see a real hippo. Our zoo does not have any. We have 2 big beautiful rhinos though, but alas, no hippos. Fiona is darling. May she grow healthy, strong and good tempered. May she live a long long and prosper at that zoo that saved her life. She is precious.

This is such an amazing and wonderful story. I both happy for and jealous of the zoo keepers who did this - what a fantastic experience! But I have to say, also, whoever did the filming, and editing, for this series of videos, did a really really good job. It's very compelling and beautifully presented. Thank you!

This is amazing footage. I never knew about how important their mouths are to each other, but it was cute as heck to see the baby exploring her mothers mouth. I thought it was cool too when Mom started to gently close her mouth to let the baby know she needed to come out so that Mom could relax her jaws a bit. I hope that she and Fiona continue to bond and thrive.
