Cocaine Hippos

Colombia's cocaine hippos, descendants of four animals imported by Pablo Escobar in the 1980s, have grown to around 160 and may reach 500 by 2030. Colombia plans to cull roughly 80 of them, but a billionaire has offered to save the herd.

Anant Ambani, the son of tycoon Mukesh Ambani, has formally requested the Colombian government to halt plans to kill the 'cocaine hippos' in the country. The request aims to prevent the culling of the animals, which have become a controversial topic due to their association with drug trafficking.

Colombia plans to euthanize Escobar's 'cocaine hippos', a herd of invasive animals linked to Pablo Escobar. The decision comes as authorities seek to address the ecological impact of the hippos, which have become a conservation challenge.

Colombia plans to kill dozens of hippos descended from four animals brought to the country in the 1980s by Pablo Escobar for his private zoo. These hippos, dubbed 'cocaine hippos,' are linked to the infamous drug lord's criminal activities.
