I attend Sisters Elementary School. I am ten years old and in the fifth grade. My favorite animal is a hippo, so I decided to make this website and show the rest of the world how cool hippos really are. Well this is a good place to collect some information. Links to great hippo sites click on the button to go to Hippo World click on this button to go to a website with hippo photos.
Hippos are pretty cool animals.
They are one of the few animals that can move both ears independantly. The name hippopotamus means river horse in greek, but hippos aren't really related to horses at all. They are actually related to pigs.
