Baby hippo Fiona was chowing on some pumpkin for Halloween when she lost her footing and slid into her pool—and the internet is lapping it up.
The Cincinnati Zoo & Botanical Garden uploaded the video to YouTube on Oct 31, 2018.
Set to frolicsome spooky music, first mommy hippo, Bibi, bites into a jack-o'-lantern, busting it open in one chomp, before the nearly two-year-old Fiona (born prematurely in January 2017) totters over to munch on the remnants.
Fiona is enjoying the fall treat so much she gets just a little too close to the edge of the rocks and topples into the water.
The zoo captioned the video:
"Trip-or-Treat. Don't worry, the plump princess was just fine. Baby hippo Fiona slips into the water while devouring her Halloween Day pumpkin."

Looks like Fiona already had some fans before her pumpkintastic performance:
According to the Cincinnati Zoo's website, Fiona, who was born six weeks early, is the smallest hippopotamus ever to survive.
Annie would some adoption paperwork mailed to her, please:Some Twitter users commented on Fiona's appetite:
No overstatement here whatsoever:
Can't wait to see what Fiona get for her Thanksgiving Day meal…
