Can you tell they're related? 🦛 Aunt #Maple and her nephew Hugo at johnballzoogr might have a slightly unconventional family tree, but they certainly share the same goofy energy 🧡

From your Toronto Zoo to our conservation partners at John Ball Zoo, these two little pygmy hippos are helping guests and members fall in love with their species while shining a light on their Endangered wild counterparts.

Every connection like this is an opportunity to inspire action for pygmy hippos and the West African forests they call home. #GuardiansofPygmyHippos
