Hippopotamus Linda has become a new mother. She has just given birth to a new baby.

The new baby swims around the river under the watchful eyes of its mother.

The baby is now a few weeks old. It now follows the mother on land.

They munch and graze together, and play and push each other.

The baby hippopotamus is very agile on land. It runs very quickly.

The baby has now turned seven years old. It has bulky and short legs.
