The Cincinnati Zoo is telling visitors why baby hippo Fiona’s dad, Henry, hasn’t been seen much lately.

“Our beloved papa hippo hasn’t been feeling well and has been choosing to stay inside. He has been more tired than usual and doesn’t have much of an appetite,” the zoo said in an Instagram post.

“Please send your positive thoughts Henry’s way,” the post says.
