AWWWW! It’s so little!
What I love is that it doesn’t even look like a hippo yet, it looks like a cross between a puppy and a seal.
I know! My favorite part is when it’s in the second water bucket, and sort of snorts and wiggles its little ears. Oh, how I want a pygmy hippo…
Where can I get one?
I’m not sure, but let me know if you find out! I thought about flying to Australia and hippoknapping the little guy. Ok, sure, maybe a New York City apartment isn’t the best place for a pygmy hippo, but I’ve got a bathtub, and how big can he (or she) get?
