if i was reincarnated, I'd like to come back as a hippopotamus. What about you?
I might consider a bear or lion. I know the hippos get their name from a Greek word meaning water horse
Water horse? That's amazing. I didn't know there were hippopotamus during the Greek times. I heard they can be pretty aggressive. Have you ever seen one?
I have in a zoo environment. The Hippo is actually the third largest land animal in the world.
Really? That's so fascinating. Do you know where they originate from?
Im not sure of the origin but common hippos are mostly found in river and lakes. They love swamps and other murky areas.
Interesting. I wonder if they existed during the times of dinosaurs, or how long they have been the way we seem them now?
Well one word of advice I can offer is if you ever see one in the wild be careful. Even though they look slow they can run over short distances easily.
Really? Thank you! I seen them at a zoo once, that's about it. I know they can be aggressive so I think I would stay far away!
Yeah, they are mostly herbivorous but you should always be safe.
