Cincinnati Zoo & Botanical Garden’s famous Fiona has a not-so-secret admirer living in Texas – San Antonio Zoo’s Timothy the Hippo has been writing frequent love letters to Fiona, asking her to “#hipposwiperight”.
In the latest letter, posted March 15, Timothy continued to confess his love for Fiona, writing, “I’d wallow through miles of mud to see you” and telling her about his life. He even hinted at maybe moving to Cincinnati Zoo & Botanical Gardens, if The Association of Zoos and Aquariums thought they were a match made in hippo heaven.
Posts to Timothy the Hippo’s social media pages have been directed at Fiona for more than a week. The page is managed by the San Antonio Zoo. Credit: Timothy the Hippo, San Antonio Zoo via Storyful
