supermouse
did ýou know that when hippos poo, they use their tails like a propeller to spread it and mark their territory?

Their skin alone weighs a ton and is bullet proof. Also one of their greatest defenses is their breath. They only have 4 teeth. They kill more people than any other predator in Africa. But the most interesting thing is they can't swim. They can float or walk on the bottom of the river bed but can't swim. So if they chase you, get in a boat ^_^ And if you don't have one, repent of your sins and hope the hippo is Christian ;)

MeSmartU2, I just started too! I used to play 'Who wants to be a Millionaire' until they got greedy and wrecked the game. I'm so glad they did or I would never have found QUIZZLAND. it's sooo much better!

if anyone has time YouTube Jessica the 🦛 hippopotamus. this couple had adopted Jessica and fed her with a Coke bottle and made a nipple for it and she was so adorable. I think she has died but the story is beautiful. they had her spoiled rotten. I love how this app is so helpful in education! these are rare animals and are going extinct and I want them to stop killing these babies. they are very prehistoric.

My favourite animal is the hippopotamus. Always found them intriguing and fascinating since I was young. Quite remarkable animals.

The hippopotamus is one of my favourite wild animals.
I like to see lots of hippos in Zambezi River between Zambia 🇿🇲 and Zimbabwe 🇿🇼 one day.
So, I like that Common Hippopotamus itself rather than Pygmy Hippopotamus. Because it has a big mouth that can yawn.

Hippos (Horse) + Potamus (River) = Hippopotamus (River Horse).. It's Interesting!
