To stay cool in their hot African habitat, they spend most of their time in water. They are adapted for life in water. Their eyes, nose and ears are located on the top of their head, so they can see and breathe whilst submerged in the water. They can hold their breath for up to five minutes underwater.

While hippos appear bulky, their bodies are composed almost entirely of dense muscle rather than fat, with body fat levels estimated at only 5%.
