Hippos and birds have a symbiotic relationship in the wild. Birds often perch on hippos to feed on parasites and insects on their skin, while hippos benefit from the birds' cleaning services. This mutually beneficial interaction helps both species stay healthy in their natural habitat.
Only if they are very ill. NO THEY DONT EXIST!!!!!!!!!Your question falsely assumes that hippos are fat; in fact most hippos you see are quite normal weight for their species. Their body build is mostly muscle, and there is very little actual fat on them. It is guaranteed you have never seen an obese hippo.
