These animals may seem cute and clumsy, but they are not.
Visitors to the Toronto Zoo in Canada are truly lucky! They had the opportunity to witness a hippo pumpkin feast. Hungry animals are given whole pumpkins, which they eagerly “crush” and devour.
The video from the zoo quickly went viral. In it, zookeepers approach the animals and ask them to open their mouths. The hippos obediently comply, and the park employees carefully throw the pumpkins and quickly retreat!
These guys are clearly hungry.
It may seem that a hippo can easily crush a pumpkin with its powerful jaws, but as one of the viewers of the video pointed out, the tension in the animal’s eyes is noticeable. Nevertheless, it doesn’t matter much because the effort is worth these treats.
However, it’s important not to let these adorable animals deceive you. The zookeepers quickly move away from them for a reason. Hippos are very dangerous. They can become aggressive and quickly lose their temper. Therefore, it’s better to watch them from a distance, for example, on YouTube!
