Adopt a hippo


Happy, the resident hippopotamus of the National Zoo, is looking for a new home. His current pad is due to be replaced by a spacious elephant habitat so he has to move. His long-time keeper, JT, will miss his big, bulbous buddy.

I sure will miss Happy when he moves. Some members of my staff have been visiting him since he was a very young hippo!

It would be nice if the "teeny tiny chance" of keeping him in DC came true, but I wouldn't want to deprive him of an even nicer home, and maybe some other hippos to grunt at. I would invite him to stay with me, but he probably doesn't fit through the front door, and the bathtub is much too small for swimming.

I wish I could adopt Happy!
