HIPPOPOTAMUS (Hippopotamus amphibius)
The hippopotamus, also known as the "river horse," lives
along rivers and lakes in sub-Saharan Africa.
Weighing up to 8,000 pounds, the hippo is the second heaviest
land animal next to the elephant.
The hippopotamus seeks refuge from the heat by living in water during the day. At night it comes ashore to feed on short, soft grasses and fallen fruit.
The eyes and ears of a hippo are on the top of its head, so it can keep watch for enemies (mainly crocodiles) while lying low in the water
