About the Hippopotamus The hippopotamus (Hippopotamus amphibius) is one of Africa’s most iconic and fascinating mammals. Despite their bulky appearance, hippos are highly adapted to life in water and are commonly found in rivers, lakes, and wetlands across sub-Saharan Africa, including Uganda’s Kazinga Channel in Queen Elizabeth National Park Hippos spend most of the day submerged in water to keep cool and protect their sensitive skin from the sun. At dusk, they leave the water to graze on grass
