Moo Deng ears & headband (updated 2025!)

Everyone loves our queen pygmy hippo, Moo Deng. I adapted some Shrek ears to make these baby hippo ears! It's a great semi-low effort costume :) 

(could also be Mars from Tanganyika, Poppy from Richmond zoo, or the OG, Fiona at Cinncinati zoo!)

You can print the ears alone, or print the version with the cones on the headband and ears to help guide their placement and make gluing them on more stable. I used super glue and it held up perfectly. I also primed and painted mine for that classic Moo Deng wet look™ 

Post your makes so I can see your cute costumes :)
