🦛 Guy Fawkes was a female hippopotamus born at London Zoo on 5 November 1872 — hence the name referencing Bonfire Night.

A day late, but to celebrate #WorldHippoDay, we'd like to introduce you to Guy Fawkes, found in 'Wild animals and the camera' (William P. Dando, 1911). We're sure you'll agree she's a real beauty.
