  • Kudos to the team that created spy hippo. I was amazed to see the spy-in-the-water cam actually have moving legs, and the ear wiggles just set me over the edge. Brilliant!

    An incredible creature is hippo. With such huge demand for water to sustain life & to reproduce, huge body cumbersome on land (yes, he can trot though), how he survive through severe dry season year after year!
