Happy Holidays from your Hippo Hero! 💋🦛 Multiple Zoos & Aquariums are helping spread holiday cheer this season by sending virtual holiday cards to each other in a fun chain started by the wonderful @Zoo Miami! We received a card from beautiful Honolulu Zoo, where Vision’s mom Mara currently resides. ❤️ We chose to pay forward the cheer by creating a card for a Zoo up north- @Staten Island Zoo! Staten Island, we challenge you to pass on the holiday greetings. —————————————— #hippohero #hippopotam
