Four months after she was prematurely born, the media will be able to watch Cincinnati Zoo and Botanical Garden's Fiona the baby hippo in her outside habitat and pool, according to WCPO.
The Cincinnati-based television station reports that Fiona, along with swimmers, will explore the Hippo Cove exhibit after the zoo closes.
Until now, the zoo has guarded Fiona’s access because of her weakened immune system and safety concerns.
Members of the media will be able to shoot photos and videos of the baby hippo during a time when keepers report that they have heard occasional vocalizations from Fiona, including grunts around meal time.
