Answer to Monday's Riddle: Hungry Hippo!


Excellent guessing, Riddlers! Friday, Margo says we'll be hanging out with hippos, so stay tuned. See you all around the book block. ; ) ~ F

A river horse or whale on land; I've four squat legs on which to stand. In water, my eyes skim by, watching out on the sly. When I'm hungry, it's grass I eat, soaking in African heat. Big and bad; fierce, but cute- it's well known that I yawn and toot. 

What am I? Answer: Hippopotamus

    Hippos are so cute; I remember seeing them years ago at the San Diego Zoo :)

    They are very interesting animals. Saw them at the zoo in Krefeld a few week back. Hugs, Valerie

    Probably would have got that one, for once. But alas, I arrived too late to guess.
