An adorable chunky hippo named Timothy has been spotted living his best life whilst being treated to a spa day.
In the footage you can see the huge mammal relaxing in its enclosure whilst being tended to by hundreds of little fish.
With closed eyes and a slight smirk, the fully-submerged hippo is clearly enjoying the pampering session.

Timothy, a 10-year-old Nile hippopotamus, often likes to take a snooze whilst the neighbouring fish get to work.
Due to the size and structure of hippos like Timothy they are unable to do their own skincare.
This is why these huge animals team up with fish such as the African cichlids that are in Timothy’s tank.
In the footage they can be seen eating the dead skin off the 3,000lb sleeping giant.
Workers at the San Antonio Zoo can never resist filming his famous spa day sessions.
This footage was filmed on last week at the zoo in San Antonio, Texas, as reported by What’s The Jam.
Members of the public were left in awe by this adorable footage.
Gaul Pichuki said: “The tranquillity I seek.”
Pujo Mardianto added: “He is sleeping and enjoying the fish spa.”
Cindy Cluett said: “Look at the smile.”
Paula Madden Martin stated: “Afternoon siesta and beauty appointment.”
Another said: “Living that best life.”
