Your Local Moo Dengs

TL,DR: I made a running list of the Pygmy Hippos born recently.

Ok guys… So, I made a comment in the link below about the babies born this year and I keep finding out about more!!! https://www.reddit.com/r/moodeng/s/snGpGVUy6U

I know everyone can’t go to Thailand to see Moo Deng, but maybe you can visit one of her cousins instead! ☺️

I’ll try to update this whenever I find out about another one. It’s currently just 2024, but I’ll add some from the last couple years. They don’t reach maturity until they’re 4/5 years old.
