Everyone is posting pictures of Moo Wan, Moo Deng's older sister, and saying it's Moo Deng and I worry it's bad for her self-esteem.

Say hello to Haggis the baby pygmy hippo. I could happily post nothing but pictures and videos of pygmy hippos on here because they're awesome (and I loved them before it was fashionable, just saying 😉). I've resisted the urge to do that, but I'm only human, so here's Haggis.

'Incredibly rare' pygmy hippo born at Edinburgh zoo
An "incredibly rare" female baby hippopotamus has been born at Edinburgh Zoo.

The tiny endangered pygmy hippo calf, named Haggis, arrived on 30 October and zookeepers said her personality was "beginning to shine" already.

Ans she's cute beyond all reason...Sweet.
