    I love wildlife, any kind. I don’t understand poachers. Why would
    they want to kill your hippos? What do they do with them?, food?

      Unfortunately Kris poachers kill for the money. They kill any animals for either the meat value or in the case of elephant and rhino the tusks and the horn. They sell the meat commercially. They will poach anything from a very tiny animal to an extremely large one. Hippos to them are just meat! We do our best to stop poaching here and so far in twenty odd years have never had a hippo poached but they have managed to kill many other species. Love Karen and the hippos
