Jessica the Hippo

I'm surprised that dog foot didn't get broken when that hippo stepped on it

Jessica casually walking into the house made me smile

You're are so freaking ignorant. You're a waste of a human life. What is it to you how much they spend? Its their business not yours.

@jimmykong57 lol what business is to know that they adopted a hippo in to their society..."waste of human life" lol go suck a dick.

This is the cutest heart-warming video I've ever seen. God Bless the family who adopted Jessica. It is so sweet seeing the dogs and Jessica sleeping together. I hope she lives a happy long life. I do suggest to the family that she wears a bright marker or tag or jacket or whatever that she "belongs" to this family so that other humans will not mistaken her for a wild hippo to protect her.

She didn't do it on purpose, did it ever cross your mind??

i want a pet hippo so bad

she's like a dog trapped in a hippo's body

I never realized just how adorable a hippo could be. It never ceases to amazes me the wonders of the bonds humans can have with wild animals. I love this story!!!!

Ive actually gotten the chance to meet Jessica. I went to South Africa over the summer. Shes amazing!! To whoever said she might eat a dog, she wont shes never done anything bad to them.Also someone said she might not be able to make it out in the wild,she lives in the wild. They dont force her to stay with them,she goes and eats with the wild hippos and chooses to come back.And after being around it its VERY easy to see how Shirley can see her as a daughter. She has a very distinct personality
