Yes. A pygmy hippopotamus is endothermic, able to maintain its own body temperature. It is a mammal, and mammals and birds are endothermic. The term 'endothermic' is the biological term for an animal that is warm-blooded.

Mammals are endothermic, reptiles are exothermic. Endothermic animals can regulate their body temperature. Cold blooded or exothermic animals can not regulate their body temperature. Exothermic animals have to get their body heat from an outside source..hence the EXO....thermic. Endothermic is from the inside..hence the ENDO....thermic.
