Hungry, hungry hippos

-

Nantong, China—These playful hippos at Nantong Forest Wildlife Park love to turn snack time into a game. On a rather toasty day, keepers decided to give the nearly 4,000-pound mammals a surprise by tossing halved watermelon­s into their exhibit’s pool. The pair floated nearby, mouths open, hoping to get the first bite on the treats. Once they munched on the cool fruit, the hungry duo had a blast diving to the bottom of the water for the leftovers and tossing them back and forth to each other.
