I’ve never seen hippos so…ROUND. They seem harmless…as though they wouldn’t attack & kill humans. OH, WAIT, THEY DO. Phew, education saves me once again! I almost fell for it!

Wow, they’re the Edinburgh hippos? I visited them last year (and may go again this summer). Lovely critters, I think they recognized me as one of their own! Hope they weren’t too disappointed in the lack of belly rubs (a specialty of mine, ask any cat, dog or pig).

OMG! These guys are from Edinburgh Zoo!
The baby is all grown up now, but is still very cute.
I took some photos of them a while ago…

These guys made think of the house hippos commercial from years back, and then it was on today. I wanted a house hippo so badly.

Very cute indeed. I must say tho, the mini-blorp kinda reminds me of a turd. Maybe I’m disturbed, but he does. But he’s cute all at the same time. (?) brain confused………….
