Every time I eat a dwarf hippo, I'm hungry three hours later.

Fascinating I remember these creatures got a frustratingly brief mention in David Attenborough's The First Eden, and I've been wondering about them ever since.

I've seen a pygmy hippo skull before - but didn't know there were dwarf hippos. In Cyprus no less. (They probably died out from religious infighting, given the nature of Cyprus.)

Pygmy hippos in the flesh are much cuter, however. Oh, teh squee!

In a cavern, in a canyon, Excavaaating for a dig, They found hippos; they were pips, though They were smaller than a pig.

In related news I didn't know that 'Cypriot' was the correct name for 'from Cyprus.'

Perhaps they're related to the secretive House Hippo (obligatory YooToob)

If only they'd had a jar of peanut butter

But, can little hippos learn to swim?
