Hippo crushes pumpkin in one bite

Baby hippo Fiona has discovered the next best thing to the infamous PSL, which hippos don't have yet. It's just plain old pumpkin.

Recently, Fiona and her family were given the seasonal treat by the Cincinnati Zoo. In honor of HallZOOween, the zoo's traditional Halloween event, the adored hippo squad was given raw pumpkin to eat. Human zoo visitors have the opportunity to participate in an early version of trick-or-treating among the animals while the hippos and other animals receive pumpkin.

Fiona had never tried the spooky snack before, and as you can see, she was a great fan. While Mom and Dad gobbled up full gourds, the young hippo happily ate all of her pumpkin chunks.

Being that October 26th is National Pumpkin Day, Fiona tried her new favorite dish at the perfect time!

Fiona has had a big month in October. In addition to having her first delicious taste of pumpkin, she also photobombed her first marriage proposal, which is a significant milestone for any famous animal.

We eagerly anticipate what she has planned for us in November.
