One of the two females at Auckland is his mother. I'm posting some photos of the Werribee hippos. This was the first time that I saw them, both the male and Primrose and Tulip were out on the beach.
Patrick I am pretty sure it was to stop inbreeding with the other 2 as one was his mother and the other one snorkle did have some relation with him also if any one wanted to no Fudge was actuly a twin but his twin called fatima died a couple weeks afetr birth
