Baby hippos are clearly so adorable with their chubby and adorable bodies.
They are also so flexible that it makes you want to keep them as pets.
It’s probably illegal, but you can keep a “skinny pig” instead. In fact, they are neither skinny nor porky.
Their breed is known as Cavia porcellus, who look quite similar to a super mini hippopotamus.
Of course, after seeing them, many people want to have a mini hippopotamus as a pet.
They require warmth and protection just like pets and are not found very often in nature.
The thing is that these unique creatures have been created by scientists to carry out hairlessness mutation research.
These pigs are smaller than regular guinea pigs, weighing 1 to 2 pounds.
Skinny pigs become the happiest when they have companionship and enough space to roam.
Since they don’t have hair to protect their skin, they can also get sick due to insufficient conditions and they don’t bathe often.
The average lifespan is about five to seven years. So, if you ever want to keep these creatures as your pet, you must be able to provide them with the proper care they need.
