I'm just going to jump right into it, the moment you've been waiting for...the Pygmy Hippo's name is HOLLY BERRY! Such a cute and perfect name for the sweet baby hippo that was born before Christmas to Tampa's Lowry Park Zoo.  The Pygmy Hippo is rare and endangered (with less than 40 pygmy hippos in the program), so this has been very exciting for the zoo! Holly Berry currently weighs in at...
