I don’t believe any hippo weighs 6,000 lbs

However.....

Long ago in a plains tribe, three young men came of age and were to be married. They were sent out into the world with a bow and arrow and a knife to kill an animal the fur of which was to be used to make their marriage bed

Brave Eagle returned with a wonderful cougar hide that was tanned into a beautiful fur

Charging Bull returned with the hide of a young bear that was tanned into a beautiful fur.

Falling Rocks was not very successful. He returned with the skins of two rabbits and a squirrel. These were not large enough to make a marriage bed. His wise grand mother suggested he take them to the trading post and get a striped blanket.

Alas, the trader would not part with a blanket for such a minor return but offered a dusty hippopotamus hide that though rough was in fact large enough.

A year passed
The squaw of Brave Eagle presented him with a son
The squaw of Charging Bull presented him a beautiful daughter
The squaw of Falling Rocks presented him with twins, a boy and a girl

Theorem:
The Squaw of the hippopotamus is equal to the squaws of the other two hides

Did not see that coming. Perfectly logical for DST Clock Change Day.🤭
