An adult hippo can weigh more than 4,000 pounds, yet enter the water with surprising agility — and often a giant splash. Rivers are their refuge, helping regulate body temperature while providing a safe place to rest during the heat of the day. Nikon Z8 with Nikkor 180-600mm lens, 4K at 120fps.

Surprisingly graceful! I love that you list the camera and specs you used to get the shot.
Thanks Cheryl. This was that first day in the Masai Mara when we drove down to check out all those huge hippos in the river.
