Chiang Mai Zoo excitedly welcomed a newborn hippopotamus yesterday and we can verify it’s afuckingdorable.

Seriously, if we could we’d take it home and make it the new Coconuts mascot.

The baby’s mama, Maliwan, a 36-year-old hippopotamus and the yet to be named calf are both reported to be healthy.

Chiang Mai Zoo will hold a contest to name the newborn after its gender can be indicated, the Daily News reported.
