It’s World Hippo Day, so make some room for one of Earth’s largest animals! Because this gigantic herbivore can reach weights of ~8,000 lbs (3,600 kg), you might think you could outrun a hippo. But you’d be wrong: A hippo (Hippopotamus amphibious) can charge as fast as 30 mph (48.3 kmh)! That’s faster than an Olympic sprinter.
Found throughout parts of East, West, and Central Africa, this mammal spends the majority of its time in water, inhabiting rivers and lakes. Hippos graze under the cover of darkness, emerging from their watery domain to consume an average of 88 lbs (40 kg) of food each night. Fun fact: A group of hippos is called a bloat.
I suppose you get what you pay for. The GOP refuses to govern, they obstruct and avoid any kind of regulation like the plague. They collect two checks…one from the American public and the other from their corporate pimps…
Republican sheep fail to read, understand or decipher the facts or issues. Instead, they listen to their friends (who don’t read either) and their party, who laughs all the way to the bank.
In the meantime…states suffer for the lack of regulation and the GOP blindly blames the Democrats, just like their sheep…it’s an oxymoron and a dynamic that I’ve seen my whole lifetime…SMH.
