Everyone loves cats and dogs, pandas, chinchillas, dolphins, hamsters, guinea pigs, tiger cubs and koalas… This list can be continued for a very long time, but it is fair to note that in most of the "ratings" of the cutest animals for some reason there are no hippos.
And very in vain, because these mammals, it turns out, can be very attractive. To make sure of this, look at the photos below.
Just imagine, someday this baby will weigh more than a ton!
Hygienic procedures, just like our pets.
What cute paws!
Ah, those folds… Well, how is he worse than sharpey?
Bon appetit, baby!
What a touching moment!
That's who cheeks really paint.
Little hippos are also children.
It's impossible not to fall in love with this cute face.
Mom and son are resting.
Still quite a baby.
It is a pity that the hippopotamus population is decreasing every day.
This happens, of course, because of human activity.
Fortunately, there are those people who care about hippos. And they reciprocate them.
If "no", look at this baby!
Would you like to cuddle him?
Just hurry up, because soon the baby will become as big as his mother!
The weight of an adult male hippopotamus reaches 1800 kg, the female — 1500 kg.
In Africa, hippos are considered one of the most dangerous animals for humans.
But looking at these photos, we refuse to believe it!
