CINCINNATI -- Team Fiona cookies return to Busken Bakery stores this week.

The cookies go on sale Thursday. The updated design shows the baby hippo with her mom, Bibi.

A dollar from each cookie will be donated to the Cincinnati Zoo and Botanical Garden.

The first batch of Team Fiona cookies quickly sold out earlier this year. As of Feb. 28, sales had raised $20,844 for the zoo.

Fiona has been making unannounced appearances with Bibi in the outdoor exhibit over the past few weeks. She was the first hippo born at the Cincinnati Zoo in 75 years and his inspired a variety of merchandise, from playing cards to beer.

This week on Hear Cincinnati, Fiona care team member Wendy Rice catches us up on the latest in our favorite hippo's life. It's at about 17:15 in the player below:
