I'm guessing that some farmer poisoned the hippos and then some people ate the poisoned meat. If someone offers you a slice of Ugandan hippo meat, Just say NO. Stay safe.

Look, why do we need to drag Bill Clinton and Al Gore into this? Just leave Hippo out of the story....

The only thing worse on you to eat than dead hippo meat is live hippo meat.....

Uganda has never had the pleasure of a visit from Michael Moore have they? Well, I'll be the first to certify him organic fed.........

No way. That just happened down the street from me a couple weeks ago. I just figured it was a New Jersey problem. I mean, when your happily married governor comes out of the closet as a gay sex herasser, getting poisoned by hippo meat just doesn't seem that strange.

These morons see hippos dropping dead of some strange disease, and what do they do? They EAT them!
This is why 15 billion dollars for AIDS relief to Africa is such a bad idea. We'll be seeing adults suffocating themselves putting condoms over their heads!

It didn't say whether or not the deceased cooked their meat before eating it.

In a related story, Hillary reports a sudden weight loss.

They would probably have died if they tried to eat a "Live" hippo.

We're talking a MAJOR case of Montezuma's Revenge here, folks. On the solid side, that is.

Looks like fried hippo steak is the preferred cooking style.
"Lea Harushimana, a 25-year-old mother, says she celebrates whenever she can get hold of hippo steaks and fries them with cassava, rice or potatoes. “We invite neighbours, it’s a party. Hippo meat is delicious,” she said." http://www.dailytimes.com.pk/default.asp?page=story_19-8-2003_pg9_11

And no,...I don't mean John Kerry.
Oh ha ha ha ha, I am just so funny.
