Shanghai Zoo Employee Brushes Hippos Teeth
As you might imagine, hippos generally don't need their teeth cleaned, as they pretty much only eat grass. Yet at the Shanghai Zoo, they feed the hippos things like fruits and vegetables, so things can get caught in their teeth. So of course, they developed a Hippo Toothbrush, which the use to clean their teeth.  ·  ·  ·  ·  ·  ·  ·  ·  ·  ·  ·  ·  ·  ·  ·

Aaaww, the hippo looks so content! Now all we have to invent anymore is a king-size xylitol chewing gum for hippos  |

Re: Shanghai Zoo Employee Brushes Hippos Teeth
Very nice. The last pic the hippo seems to be smiling about the whole experience. They really do seem to enjoy it  |
