West African River Experience
Meet Button and Genny, two massive Nile hippos (3000 lbs each!). Arguably the most dangerous animal in Africa. With mouths capable of opening up to 4 feet — only whales can go bigger. As you venture through the West African River Experience, you see them on land, but most amazingly, you will view them underwater as they frolic (really!), jump out of the water and press their snouts against the glass, going eye-to-eye with even our smallest visitors. Plus, you’ll be surrounded by free-flying birds and get up close to our African porcupine. It’s all of the fun — and none of the malaria. SHOW ALERT: Check the daily schedule when you arrive to see an experienced Aquarium biologist present everything you ever wanted to know about hippos but were afraid to ask.
