Topeka’s KTKA is reporting that the Topeka Zoo’s lonely hippo-turned-cougar, Mara, will soon have a potential suitor in Tucker, a younger hippo gentleman from Disney’s Animal Kingdom.
In the name of ‘research,’ I mistakingly googled on the mating habits of the hippopotamus. I didn’t go past that, but evidently it’s made the list of several top 10 ‘bizarre’ mating rituals.
