Fiona, Bibi and Fritz continued with introductions today. Things went well and the three of them were able to spend most of the day together! Fiona is still learning to take cues from Bibi on how to interact with her little brother and keepers saw some positive interactions! Hippo Cove may be closed at times during these introductions. Thank you for your patience as our bloat gets settled in! | Cincinnati Zoo & Botanical Garden

Since the first day, Hazel has been the cautious one of the two bears. As you can see, she is incredibly playful, often tormenting and instigating with her sister Juniper, even when it is not reciprocated. Juniper is friendly, outgoing, and very trusting. She favors rest and relaxation but plays whenever Hazel insists she should! | Cincinnati Zoo & Botanical Garden

Happy Birthday to supermom Gladys! Gladys turns 13 today! First time moms don’t always know what to do. Gladys came to the Cincinnati Zoo from the Gladys Porter Zoo when she was a baby because her mom’s maternal instincts did not kick in. Gladys needed human surrogates and eventually a surrogate gorilla mom, so it's especially heartwarming to see her rocking motherhood! | Cincinnati Zoo & Botanical Garden
