The hippos mouth is 4 feet (1.2m) and its teeth are big too. See: Hippopotamus - The Hippo's Teeth And Its Diet for more information.

water plants and grass

Hippopotamuses live in herds of 20 to 30. They are not aggressive, but are dangerous fighters if frightened or attacked.

Given their size, one might say hippos can't float because hippos seem too heavy to swim. One would be wrong. The hippo's fat makes it buoyant so it can float very well. On the other hand Hippos do not really swim. Their method of travel is very simple: they walk, or bound, if underwater.

In greek history, they called hippos water horse's because they thought hippos looked like a horse very well, but the hippos spent a lot of time in the water so they called them water horse's. But then, most of the people in the world changed it to hippopotamus.

Hippo mouths are big so they can fight with each other to see who will be the leader (or dominant male I think) or just defence. The mouth does not serve any purpose in eating because all they eat is grass.

No. They are very territorial and VERY dangerous but not poisonous.

Both actually. Hippos spend most of the day in water. It helps them control body temperature, protect them against predators, biting insects and sunburn, and take some weight off their feet and legs. But they don't eat much in water, and generally go on land during night to graze.

they like eating leaves, fallen fruit, aquatic and reed plants, low lying plants, and soft grasses

Hippopotamus (hippopotamus amphibius) or hippo have 40 teeth. They have a pair of huge incisors (up to 18 inches long), curved lower canine teeth (ivory, grow up to 3 feet), and flat molars used for grinding up vegetation. Their teeth are used to defend their spot in the water hole in which they spend most of their day, in which they are very territorial.

They have a good shelter under the swampy waters or mud and not be seen

not at all because the hippos jaws can open up to 190degrees but the lions can only open up to 120degrees

they need the red secretion that seeps from their skin so they are protected from uv and battle sores. They need water because all hippos eithe rlive in bogs or rivers. they also need weed and small fish that they eat.

Hippos are omnivorous animals though they don't eat meat.Many People have seen and videotaped hippos eating meat.

Most people don't know they eat meat so they just say they are a herbivorous animal.

hippos do have hoves

Hippos measure between 3.3 to 5.2 meters in length. That works out to between 11 to 17 feet in length. Their tail is around 22 inches in length. They are around 1.5 meters tall at their shoulder. They are extremely large for their height and length and can weigh over 3000 kilograms.

A female hippopotamus is called a cow. The male hippopotamus is called a bull. A group of hippopotamus is called either a crash or herd.

no hippos are not poisonous. hippos are herbaviors and DO NOT eat meat. the reason many people have heard about hippos killing people is because the people were either hunting, messing with, or hurting the animals. they also could have entered the hippos terrotory

Hippos are extremely huge animals. They are one of the largest land animals. It is the third largest mammal on earth by size and weight. The average weight for Adult Males is between 1500 and 1800 kilograms which works out to 3300 to 4000 pounds in weight. Females are much lower in weight and weigh between 1300 to 1500 kilograms which works out to around 3000 pounds. Adult Males weighing around 3000 to 4000 kilograms have also been seen and recorded. Male hippos grow throughout their lives and that is why they can grow to such huge weights.

Pilky says "NO"

Actually, yes, there are, though they aren't native to South America. During the 1980s, a very wealthy drug lord named Pablo Escobar had more money than he knew what to do with, so he basically built a zoo on his property and flew in all kinds of exotic animals, including nine hippos.

In 1993, Escobar was shot and killed on a rooftop, and I guess since then, his private zoo hasn't been looked after quite as well as it once was. Three of these hippos, a bull named Pepe, his mate, Matilda, and their calf escaped in 2006. In 2009, Pepe was killed, but at that time Matilda and the calf were still at large and were frequently seen by many locals. The last I heard, they were still running around.

Young hippos do swim, but older hippos generally propel themselves through water by thrusting against the bottom using their legs. This is because an adult hippo is not usually buoyant (doesn't float). So they must surface every few minutes to breathe, which they do automatically while sleeping. While hippos can travel in water at a top speed of maybe 5 miles per hour, they can run on land up to 25 miles per hour or even a little faster for short distances. Hippos can swim when they are young but when they are older they walk along the bottom of the river.
