Description
The hippo family grows with the young hippo from Schleich® Wild Life!
Hippopotamuses are large, heavy herbivores. They live in Africa near rivers and lakes. Their young are often born in the water and are often even fed underwater. At birth, they already have strong legs, like those of the Schleich® Wild Life hippopotamus, and can walk shortly afterward. After a few weeks, these mammals' impressive tusks begin to grow.
Funny detail
Hippopotamuses cannot swim well but spend most of their lives in the water.
