Hippos: Kings of the Jungle
July 26, 2008 02:55.15 PM
Plain and simple, Hippos are the sweetest animals of all time.
- They have no predator... nobody will mess with these things
- They're huge. Older males can weigh up to 8,000 lbs.
- Suprisingly, they can run up to 30 mph on land. Michael Johnson only ran 23.15 mph when he set the 200M world record.
- They can stay underwater for up to six minutes
- Hippos are extremely social and gregarious. They stay in groups of huge numbers
- Just check out the next pic...
Pablo Escobar kept four hippos in captivity at his home in Columbia. After the death, the hippos were too large to move and were left untended. As of 2007, they've multiplied to sixteen hippos and they're terrorizing the house for food. At this rate, Hippos will be taking over South America by 2050 and probably the United States in 2100. Good luck us.

Hi! Thanks for this news. I think it's dangerous to live in that very area. I have read the article about an 18 year-old boy. He has been killed by a hippo on Lake Kariba in Sinazongwe District in Southern Province. We must protect our families somehow.
