Little, Little Hippo

A baby (little), pygmy (little) hippo was born May 4 at the Louisville Zoo.

Only seven pygmy hippos have been born in the last five years in North America.

Topping out at an average 500 pounds (compared to the Nile hippo's 8,000 pounds), pgymy hippos are found in Liberia, Ivory Coast, Sierra Leone and Guinea.
