Delta Hippos

There were a lot of hippos in the delta.

image

They did not like our boats and tried to scare us off.

image

This made big splashes.

image

There were a lot of hippos near our campsite.

image

They also yawned a lot.

image

Their teeth didn’t seem as big as the ones in Uganda.

image

The baby hippos yawn too but it’s not as impressive as the big ones.

image

The big ones are more terrifying. But apparently not to other hippos.

image

Sometimes they wave their heads around as they yawn.image

And sometimes they jump right up.

image

They look particularly funny with their backs to you.

image

Sometimes they stick their tongues out at you.

image

Sometimes they land on other hippos and have to fall to the side.
