Adult hippos can't swim. This may seem odd since they do spend a lot of time in the water. They hold their breath well and are adapted in many ways for semiaquatic life. But they can't swim. In fact adult hippos can't even float, probably because they're too dense, and although they look fat, their percentage of fat is low.
