The Fight to Euthanize Pablo Escobar’s Hippos in Colombia
Key Points:
- In the Colombian village of Doradal, large hippos weighing around 3,000 pounds roam freely at night, disturbing the usual quiet.
- These hippos have invaded the main river, disrupting local fishing activities by replacing catfish with their presence.
- Fishermen like Giovanny Contreras are now afraid to fish at night, as the hippos have significantly altered their traditional way of life.
