Its name derives from the ancient Greek for ‘river horse’. Despite its stocky shape and short legs, it races up to 30 km/h (19 mph) over short distances. Though they look kind of cute with their roundish shape, one should not underestimate these animals by any means. Hippos are dreaded for their severely hostile territorial behavior. Females are particularly defensive if anyone gets between them and their young. Be sure to look closely at both sides of the coin as both are very cleverly accomplished.
