Kristin, animals certainly are amazing and

Amy, the precise moment of action, if you can ever imagine that with a hippo, in this case the big yawn, but it is interesting to be able to look down his mouth at a safe distance

Katyzzz, it looks like this hippopotamus's teeth are full with germs. Would you mind if I brush its teeth with the mint's flavor toothpaste? Lol
