In an unexpected twist in the animal kingdom, Fiona the hippo may have a potential suitor. Meet Henry, a charming hippo from the San Antonio Zoo, who recently took to Twitter to express his interest in Fiona, declaring he’d even move to Cincinnati for a chance to meet her. It seems like we’re not the only ones who are invested in this adorable development—social media is buzzing with excitement!
Just days ago, Henry shared that he had been admiring Fiona through her adorable photos and videos, calling her “the most stunning hippopotamus” he’s ever seen. Boldly, he asked if he could claim her heart. While his enthusiasm is admirable, Fiona’s team at the Cincinnati Zoo was quick to respond, letting Henry know that while she might be interested, she will certainly be the one to call the shots in this potential relationship.
The reactions to this budding hippopotamus romance have ranged from downright charming to quite cheeky. While the notion of a classic courtship is amusing, we know that their connection is likely motivated by the biological need for hippo reproduction. After all, that’s what these animals are meant to do!
Many are enchanted by this playful exchange, while others have taken a more humorous, albeit risqué, approach to the situation. Clearly, it’s been a light-hearted distraction for everyone involved. But whether this long-distance relationship will blossom into something more remains to be seen. One thing is for sure, unlike many humans, Henry is not here to play games.
