If you don’t know who Fiona is, you will now.Fiona is one of the most adorable creatures on this earth–and she’s a baby hippo who currently lives as the Cincinnati zoo. Videos and photos of her have gone viral, with the hashtag #TeamFiona–and you’re about to see why.
I chose some of my favorite photos and videos of her on Twitter. Why? because it’s been a particularly rough day today with two prominent, violent deaths of women of color among other distressing news items.
Check Fiona out below to get a little break from your day:
If you’re lucky, you just might spot this cutie at Hippo Cove. https://t.co/zBBqHTlwLw #TeamFiona pic.twitter.com/1Mdap5TCYM

Fiona is checking out the fish! Tilapia are in the outdoor pool because they eat dung, which helps keep the water clear. #TeamFiona pic.twitter.com/jO6zhpyB6u
