Big Splash Hippo Dives In

A huge hippopotamus leaps out of the water, sending splashy waves flying in every direction. His chubby cheeks wiggle and his round nose points straight ahead, making him look like he is surprised by his own big splash. The water jumps as high as his ears, with giant droplets flying all around.

Wrinkles cover his wide face and little spots dot his chin. He looks bold and curious, ready to make sure everyone sees his swimming skills. Thick lines show off his belly and back while waves swirl around his feet, making it a wild, busy moment at the river.

Fun Fact!

Hippos generally come out to graze at night because it's cooler, and they feel safer under the cover of darkness.
