A hippo who has called Disney’s Animal Kingdom home since its opening in 1998, just celebrated her 50th birthday.
What’s Happening:
- Viviana, a hippo at Kilimanjaro Safaris, celebrated her 50th birthday with a birthday “cake” crafted and curated by Disney's Animal Nutrition team, featuring all of her favorite foods, including sweet watermelon.
- Did you know hippos are surprisingly fast on land, and they can also crunch an entire watermelon in one bite?
- When she is not eating some of her favorite foods, Viviana enjoys relaxing in her pools and spending time with her best hippo friends Tuma, Tequila, and Ramona.
- She’s been a beloved favorite at the park for years, and this milestone only highlights her continued importance to the park.
