How do Hippos keep their cool in the triple-digit heat of a Texas summer?
Hippos are native to the brutal weather conditions of sub-Saharan Africa, so they're pretty well adapted to heat. And they know to keep to the water.
But keepers at the San Antonio Zoo know even a hippo loves a cool treat - like good old Texas watermelon.

It looks messy. But very, very refreshing.
