Ippopotamo
L'ippopotamo ha una lunghezza testa-corpo da 3,30 a 3,75 m ed è alto al garrese 1,50 m; il peso va da 1,4 a 3 t (i maschi sono nettamente più grossi delle femmine) e registra una pressione mascellare di circa 400 kg/cm².
L'ippopotamo ha un aspetto tozzo: le zampe sono corte, la testa è grande e prominente, proporzionata al grosso corpo glabro e di forma cilindrica. Nonostante la mole e la curiosa struttura corporea, questo animale è però piuttosto agile. In caso di necessità può caricare – o scappare – a circa 40 km/h. Quando esce dall'acqua, sa inerpicarsi facilmente anche su sponde ripide con l'aiuto delle pur corte zampe. La sua goffa andatura è la conseguenza di un adattamento improntato alla vita acquatica. La conformazione della testa è perfetta per consentire all'ippopotamo di restare immerso a lungo: i grandi occhi, le narici e le orecchie, piccole e mobili, sono situati nella parte superiore del muso e si trovano sullo stesso piano (spesso restano le sole parti visibili). Quando si immerge, le narici e le orecchie si chiudono.
