Meet Haggis - the 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.

Pygmy hippos, otherwise known as dwarf hippos, are native to West Africa and experts believe there are only about 2,500 left in the wild worldwide.

In September, a pygmy hippo in Thailand called Moo Deng went viral and was featured in a series of memes due to her frame and podgy proportions.

Jonny Appleyard, the hoofstock team leader at Edinburgh Zoo said that the zoo's pygmy hippo house would now be closed for a month due to the first 30 days after birth being "critical" for Haggis' development.
