Yes, Animatronic Hippos are a rare and disappearing breed which deserve our care and concern! :D:

From what I've seen,most of the skippers must be lousy shots. I mean the hippos are always there for the next trip. :confused:

They have a very short gestation period.

Naw, I think they keep a pen of them someplace behind the ride then just drive one into the water every few minutes ;)

If they are looking to relocate the hippos out of Anaheim, they better not move them to Orlando, because I hear that they are getting shot down there as well.

Went on San Diego Zoo tour last year where they showed a "toy" that had deep gashes in it from Hippo Teeth :eek:

We are lucky to make it through the Jungle Cruise alive,I tell you! Thank goodness for those brave college stud-er---skippers! :hippo:

I'm not too worried after what they found out at Kilimanjaro Safari in the early days.

Today, when you go on the ride, the male hippos are to your right, and the females are to your left. There is a very good reason for this.

You see, at first, they used medical contraception of some form and put the males and females together.

18 baby hippos later, it was decided that hippo contraception was ineffective in much more than 0.01%.

So if they are shooting anti-aircraft hippos for entertainment purposes, I am fairly sure that Anaheim has warehouses full of the things.
