Yes hippos do migrate. Males often migrate when they lose a territorial battle and when the females leave them they move to another place bringing its herd with it.

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.
Since they can't swim they navigate the water by walking on the bottom.
Why is it so hard to hold your breath for a long time?
It is VERY dangerous to hold your breath for long periods of time. The human body can only last about 2 minutes without oxygen before making your lungs breathe in more. When you hold your breath, your heart uses the oxygen you used in your last breath. Once it's done, it needs more right away. Your body runs on oxygen like gas! The heart begins to notice that there is no more oxygen in your lungs, and takes action right away. It tells your lungs to open up the "air tube" and breathe more oxygen. The longer you hold your breathe, the more your heart panics and forces the lungs to breathe.
Be smart and don't torture you're body.
