A group of hippos originally imported by Escobar to his private zoo decades ago has multiplied and, according to scientists, is now spreading through one of the country's main waterways - the River Magdalena. Last month, a study published in the Biological Conservation journal said culling the animals was the only way to mitigate their environmental impact.

 

Shaggy hunting trip? They're invasive so there isn't a season; just go shoot. And how much brisket can you cut off of one of these things?

Good luck hunting a hippo. They will kick your ass.

Seriously how hard are they to eradicate? They're big as a small bus and don't move around all that much. 

Sit a few trucks around watering holes. Insert slug shells in a few shotguns and shoot with reckless abandon. Move to next watering hole, repeat.

Airstrikes. Colombia has the Air Force and the knowledge. Or a cartelito can capture them, load them full of blow and ship them off to a US or EU Zoo.

The hippos? Or Vic's girlfriends? 

Do you know why you don’t give a hippopotamus a credit card? BECAUSE HE WILL CHARGE YOUR ASS!

I do an awesome smoked pork belly..... probably need a bigger smoker.

Looks like Netflix found the plot for their next season of Narcos

This was part of a Grand Tour episode a while back, not exactly breaking news

This thread title amuses me. I can just picture Parliament going to look up how hippopotamus is spelled while neglecting to look up Colombia, then just throwing the apostrophe-s at the end to pluralize it.

Ah, that looks good. Click

You're going to need a pungent sauce. These hippos probably taste like mud and Puerto Boyacá tampons.

So a little "minerally"?

That's why I +rep the guy that said *Colombia.  Figured he said it tongue-in-cheek.

Goddamn.  I mean, just . . . goddamn.  This is honestly elementary-school stuff here.

A hippo will mess you up. They run faster than Usain Bolt and have teeth almost two feet long. I wouldn’t shoot anything but dangerous game rounds, at minimum a .375.

This reminds me of a story.  I seldom tell my family where I travel.  My mom texted me with a question and I told her Id deal with it when I got back from Colombia.  She said" oh are you in South Carolina or Missouri."   Um no.  South America Mom

And the worst part is, they're all hungry hungry.

These things gather in herds. You may get one, but you will end up a pile of hippo shit.

Fuck around and find out.

A helicopter and a 338 Lapua should do the trick.

It is always funny to me as to why this is such an issue, but no one bats an eye at Brasil, España, Deutschland, etc. 

Those fuckers are mean.   Dont they kill a decent number of humans each year?

They kill more people in Africa than any other animal and every damn thing in Africa wants to kill ya.

SUPER territorial.  Most fatalities occur in the water obviously, as they capsize small boats in their territory - see the first gif I posted, they are FAST in the water and mean as hell.  

Look at those damn tusks.  Damn
