Indian magnate Anant Ambani, son of billionaire Mukesh Ambani, has offered to take in at his wildlife sanctuary in India, 80 “cocaine hippos” currently living in Colombia, where the government is planning to cull them.
The hippos are descended from animals introduced to the country in the 1980s by Pablo Escobar, one of Colombia’s top drug lords, who sought to have one of the largest private zoos in Latin America with a wide variety of animals.
Since then, their population has exploded to around 160 individuals, and their presence is now endangering native species. A few weeks ago, Colombia said it planned to cull 80 of these animals, sparking debate.

Can they take some of our ghettopotamusses?
did AI ( not a very good one) write this article?
Why don’t they cull all of them if they are known to cause a problem? It seems they would have to do the same thing in another 30 years or so.
started with 2...
so that means ... they have been mating with their children and brothers and sisters...
why do animals not suffer DNA damage from that like people do?
That’s good, he has compassion. But the left would say they could better spend his money....
They're not under the curse of sin like we are.
I bet hippo steak would be pretty good.
I thought he started with 14?
As far as I’m concerned, innocent animals are just as important as humans. And usually far nicer. May all the Gods of India bless him and his animals.
As far as I am concerned animals are not as important as people.
They should be hunted and destroyed.
If done right the government could make a fair amount of money selling the hunts.
It’s his $$
I know you also believe people can spend like they want or you wouldn’t be here RR
Because animals are way behind in evolution. They do not have complex genes of humans. A human cold can learn arithmetic at age 5. Animals can’t learn arithmetic after living 1000 years.
Cold = Child
Tastes kinda like spotted owl.
The punchline of that joke?
No idea. Came up with one of my favorites during the Limbaugh era. And yes, I’m pretty sure it tastes just like spotted owl.
. “Animals can’t learn arithmetic after living 1000 years.”
And that’s part of their charm. They have another kind of intelligence.
My 8-lb cat has me all figured out, gets me to feed her on time, roll over in bed if she wants me to, open and close the door, scratch, not pet her. And sit on the front 1/8 of my comfy desk chair because she wants to sleep on the rest. She’s there right now licking her back leg. If we had to have some stupid conversation about all this, it wouldn’t be fun any more..
It is, so is the burger.
