New baby hippo born around September 18th, mother is Relief and father Kuchek. It could quite possibly be a male as it is a large calf but we will have to be patient and wait to find out. You now have the chance to name this baby. I would suggest if you enter this draw that you give a female and a male name and then if you win we will have both names and once sex is known we can use your chosen name. Every dollar donated to name the baby helps these Turgwe Hippos have a future.
For 50 pounds or US$65 or 55 Euro the draw will take place on October 21st and I will make a video and send to all that enter to show who is the lucky winner.

To be safe, once you are back from PayPal, please send us an email (through Contact Us) to confirm your 2 birthnames (male and female) you chose.
Thanks. Karen and the Hippos.
