The common hippopotamus (Hippopotamus amphibius),or hippo, is a large, mostlyherbivorous mammalin sub-Saharan Africa, and one of onlytwo extant species in thefamily Hippopotamidae,the other being thepygmy hippopotamus (Choeropsisliberiensisor Hexaprotodon liberiensis). The name comes fromthe ancient Greek for "river horse" (ἱπποπόταμος). Afterthe elephant andrhinoceros, the common hippopotamus isthe third-largest type of land mammal and the heaviestextant artiodactyl. Despite their physical resemblanceto pigs and other terrestrial even-toed ungulates,their closest living relativesare cetaceans (whales,porpoises, etc.) from which theydiverged about 55 million years ago. The common ancestorof whales and hippos split from other even-toed ungulatesaround60 million years ago. The earliest known hippopotamusfossils, belonging to the genusKenyapotamus in Africa,date to around16 million years ago.

Common hippos are recognizable by their barrel-shaped torsos,wide-opening mouths revealing large canine tusks, nearly hairlessbodies, columnar-like legs and large size; adults average1,500 kg (3,300 lb) and 1,300 kg (2,900 lb) formales and females respectively, making them the largest species ofland mammal after the 3 species of elephants andthe white and Indian rhinoceros. Despite its stockyshape and short legs, it is capable of running 30 km/h(19 mph) over short distances. The hippopotamus is a highlyaggressive and unpredictable animal and is ranked among the mostdangerous animals in Africa. Nevertheless, they are stillthreatened by habitat loss and poaching for their meatandivory canine teeth.

The common hippopotamus is semiaquatic, inhabiting rivers,lakes and mangroveswamps, where territorial bulls preside overa stretch of river and groups of five to 30 females and young.During the day, they remain cool by staying in the water or mud;reproduction and childbirth both occur in water. They emerge atdusk to graze on grasses. While hippopotamuses rest near each otherin the water, grazing is a solitary activity and hippos arenot territorial on land.
