The burgeoning fascination continues.
Just a little less than a year after the debut of Hippo Beach!! on PBS, Animal Planet is coming at us with a hippo show tonight, less than an hour from now if you're in the East, at 2200 hours (10 p.m.).
This animal that weighs more than your SUV and can run a 400 alongside Jeremy Wariner and gets respect even from the Boss elephants when they have to cross through the water. I always thought that hippos were laughing when they opened their mouths wide. I didn't notice those two gigantic over foot long teeth at the bottom, and the shorter teeth alongside them that can slice a crocodile in half when the hippo closes its mouth and the scissor action goes to work.
If a hippo ever laughs at you, . . .
START RUNNING!!!
And hope you can do the 400 like Michael Johnson.
