The animals come from a special family. They were descendants of hippos that were decades ago imported by drug lord Pablo Escobar, who was shot in 1993. The gunman held a Private zoo after including elephants and giraffes.

The four hippos Escobar appeared to feel at home in the Colombian climate. Their numbers grew steadily increasing and a number of animals escaped from the ranch of drug baron. Meanwhile, we have more than sixty hippos around which there are now two have surfaced in Puerto Triunfo.
