      Untill he gets released back into the wild.
      After that he might have to fight other male hippos for territory. He'll have to deal with crocs sharing his turf. No more food being served to him on a daily basis.

      Its also a good thing they thought about cupling male with a female, as two male hipos would not only pose a risk to each another but it would also not allow them to be reintoduced into the wild that eazily, plus now they just find a good spot without anny hipos and relase the pair there, they whould mate and repopulate said area a bit faster than realising single male or two males, (also for those of you who consider this just a basic strategy yes you are correct thats what you should alway do and we see most of the time, key word being most hence why the whole thing is worth noting)

      Togetherness welds together. It is not a friendship by choice. 3 animals are kept in small cages, tell me how they could not make a "friendship". It is rather that or people will hold them alone. And especially young animals understand that they cannot be alone.

      The same could be said about people... We're social creatures, not meant to be alone. It's much easier to manage or overcome distressing situations if you have someone in your corner. And my prayer and wish is that everyone in this world finds themselves blessed with at least one good friend and especially when they need it most. May you never walk the road of life alone, take others for granted or be taken for granted. 💗

    Love how this is presented. These majestic animals weren't treated like house pets. Moomin is a pretty girl. I could see the reason for Charlie's attraction.

      ​@Kayla Peacechild If lucky, the hippo can also start a Rapping career and be called "Metro Moomin"

    That was done so thoughtfully and empathically from the point of all involved.
    Animals bond so easily when they are babies and they do remember their “family”
    This was beautifully done..♥️
