A South African farmer has been killed by the pet hippopotamus he raised from the age of five months, and which he once described as being 'like a son' to him.

What a coincidence. I have a son who is like a hippopotamus to me.

When you say your son is "like a hippopotamus to me" are you referring to his size, his appetite, disposition, or perhaps his deceptive but amazing speed? (Warning - graphic content.)
