Gertie, a majestic hippopotamus, stands proudly on the left side of the frame while her adorable new-born baby hippo takes center stage. The little one's gender is yet to be determined, and its name will depend on that exciting revelation. The scorching heat of the day prompts Gertie to seek relief in the cool waters of their enclosure. Her protective instincts kick in as she lovingly watches over her precious offspring.
