Hippos live on average between 40 and 45 years of age. While the lifespan of captive Hippos is normally 5 to 10 years longer. The oldest Hippo currently recorded, lived in captivity in Germany, and died at 61 years of age. For more details, please see the sites listed below.

A hippo's lifespan is typically 40 to 50 years.[5] Donna the Hippo, 56, is the oldest living hippo in captivity. She lives at the Mesker Park Zoo in Evansville, Indiana.[24][25] The oldest hippo ever was called Tanga; she lived in Munich, Germany, and died in 1995 at the age of 61. Hope this helps!
