Owen Will Soon Have A Hippo Friend Too

You remember Owen, the orphaned baby hippo who bonded with Mzee, a giant tortoise? Owen will soon be introduced to Cleo, another hippopotamus. It’s hoped that he will learn about hippopotamus behaviour from her. For updates and photos of Owen, Mzee, Cleo, and other animals in the sanctuary, see Owen and Mzee’s Web Log. There’s a photo of Owen resting his chin on Mzee’s shell that’s particularly charming. There’s also a photo of Owen and Mzee eating along with a bushbuck (a very shy antelope). Via Popbitch.
