Cincinnati Zoo’s Henry the hippopotamus died on Tuesday. He was the father of the zoo’s famous baby hippo, Fiona.

After a long 36 years, Henry had to be euthanized by staff on the morning of Oct. 31 after struggling to battle “health issues for months” and losing “hundreds of pounds,” according to the Cincinnati Zoo & Botanical Garden.
