Handsome Hippo

A visit to the Toronto Zoo today found this handsome fellow resting his chin on a log while floating in the water.
he looks very comfortable. The water is a nice shade of green, makes a good background.

Thanks everyone for your kind comments - Hippos sure look docile, yet they kill more people than any other animal in Africa. They are extremely aggressive and territorial, and will attack anything that ventures into their turf. They seem to feel that attack is the best form of defence. @lauraandthepack @eyesmile @joydnichols @mzzhope @bkbinthecity @tuya
