Indy, was that you we saw at the Zoo? Harrison Ford and Calista Flockhart, who are recently engaged to be married took Calista’s son Liam to see “Happy,” the Nile hippopotamus. Animal keeper Jay Tee Taylor (right) was on hand and let Ford feed the 5,000-pound creature. The family also visited the giant pandas, the lions and tigers and saw the new baby gorilla, a female named “Kibibi.”
