(6 Mar 2014)
A baby hippopotamus has debuted at Mexico City's Chapultepec Zoo, the first in 16 years.
The Nile hippo was born underwater, and without complications on February 24 and is estimated to weigh in at around 77 pounds.
In a couple of weeks, when the baby eventually leaves its mother's side, Zoo veterinarians should also be able to carry out checks to determine whether it's a boy or a girl.
The zoo is now running an online campaign to choose a name for the baby hippo.
People can vote for three different names; Igoli, meaning gold in Zulu, or two Swahili names, Haji which means noble, or Mabbina which means happiness.
