Three-Tonne Hippo Discovered In Swimming Pool | Happily TV

A homeowner was stunned when he discovered a three tonne HIPPO in his swimming pool on New Year’s Eve. The giant guest was spotted by a shocked night watchman at around 3.30am on December 31 in Maun, Botswana. Incredibly, the massive mammal – which is one of Africa’s most dangerous animals – decided to see in 2020 with its very own pool party until leaving on January 1. Brent Reed, director of Letaka Safaris, whose home the male hippo was visiting, said the night watchman had a very big surprise when he saw the unusual gatecrasher lounging in the two-metre-deep pool. In these incredible pictures Brent’s youngest son Troy, aged 11, and his friend Kyle Steyn, aged 15, can be seen looking at the wild hippo in the pool which seemed totally at ease with their presence.
