Hippos are known for being kind of cantankerous creatures for some reason. However, these adorable babies will make you change your mind. Check out this list for some of the sweetest baby hippos you have ever seen.

Hippopotamuses are estimated to be approximately 55 million years old. It’s said that they come from Sub-Saharan Africa. Their name means ‘River Horse’ in Ancient Greek. They’re considered to be the third biggest land mammal following elephants and white rhinos. Even though you probably wouldn’t think so, their closest relations are whales and dolphins. They mostly eat grass, and they typically live for around 45 years. Despite their weight, hippos can easily outrun a human. They can also be very aggressive, especially when threatened.
