The newest resident of the Memphis Zoo, Binti, explores the hippopotamus enclosure on her second day on exhibit, on July 11, 2013. The 15-year-old, 3,300 pound hippo arrived from Disney's Animal Kingdom and joins long-time zoo resident Splish as a companion on display. Both will be moved to the Zambezi River Hippo Camp when the new exhibit opens in 2015. (Photo by Mike Brown/The Commercial Appeal)
