It's #WorldHippoDay today! 🦛

Did you know hippos have the largest mouth of any land animal? Dr Frumple mostly uses his to drink huge quantities of tea. You can join him (and his giraffe sidekick) in Lord Winklebottom Investigates.

It's #WorldHippoDay! 🦛 Did you know #hippos have been classed as a Vulnerable species by @redlisteco?

A key threat to hippos is habitat loss, caused by an increase in urban areas 🏙️. How can we protect #biodiversity in a world with 10 billion people?

Hippos canines and incisors are known as ivory, just like elephant tusks. They’re made mostly of dentin, with an outer layer of enamel.

Hippos are called ‘Kiboko’ in Kiswahili, ‘Kiboko’ is another Kiswahili word which means whip.

Apparently today, Mon Feb 15th, is #WorldHippoDay. Hippos are the third largest land mammals after elephants and rhinos, and allegedly the collective noun is a 'bloat'.

My camera was not good at capturing these hippos properly in Meru National Park 2018.

A hippo’s skin must remain moist, as it will crack if exposed to the air and sun for long periods. They secrete an oily red liquid from subdermal glands which is thought to function as a sunscreen, antibiotic and insect repellent.
