Hippo Facts: Learn About The Hippopotamus – For Kids & Adults
The hippopotamus one of Africa’s best-known animals. This huge mammal lives a semiaquatic existence, spending most of the day in rivers, lakes and swamps, and only emerging at dusk.
Despite being herbivorous, it is no gentle giant: hippos are notoriously dangerous in the wild.
Sadly, like many of Africa’s large animals, the hippo is threatened by both habitat loss and hunting. Its conservation status is now ‘vulnerable’.
This article contains hippo facts for kids, students and adults, and is part of our African Animals series.

We suggest that teachers make a list of answers of their own against which their students’ completed sheets can be checked. We are looking into ways in which this can be improved.
