No, hippos do not lose their hair every spring. In fact, hippos have very little hair on their bodies and do not undergo a seasonal shedding process like some other animals. Their skin is thick and hairless, which helps them retain moisture and protect against sunburn. Instead, they secrete a natural sunscreen-like substance to protect their skin from the sun.
