Moo Deng might not be the internet's main animal attraction anymore, but there's clearly still a lot of love out there for the pygmy hippo.

In the deeply wholesome video above, The White Lotus Season 3 stars Sarah Catherine Hook and Sam Nivola (aka the two youngest siblings in the troubled Ratliff family) pay Moo Deng and her family a visit at Thailand's Khao Kheow Open Zoo.

It's as adorable as you'd expect, and they even round the meeting off with a quick game of hippo-based trivia.
