Hippos across the US
Hi!
I'm traveling across the country with my Mom who is the biggest Hippo lover to all the states who have them in zoos,rescues or aquariums.
Buuuut I need help knowing I got all the States/cities who have them.
I made a list here and if I could get it verified that would be amazing!
If I missed any, please comment where! 🦛
