Fiona was the first Nile hippo born at the Cincinnati Zoo in 75 years and arrived on Jan. 24, 2017, weighing just 29 pounds. The average newborn baby hippo weighs 55 to 120 pounds.

She was due in March, but came barreling into the light of day six weeks early. Because she was barely able to walk and nurse after birth, Fiona was taken care of by a round-the-clock care team, known as ?Team Fiona.?

You may recognize Fiona from the zoo Facebook page?s frequent updates on her life. She?s become a hippo sensation, with a line of merchandise and even her own ice cream flavor. (We live in a weird time!)

At a year old, Fiona is happy, healthy and gaining more and more weight every day. She?s also the star of The Fiona Show on Facebook Watch. The Season 2 premiere aired Wednesday, featuring Fiona going to town on her birthday ?cake,? a delicious-looking watermelon and pineapple display.
