I want to emphasize how much I understand that your value as a science communicator has obviously absolutely nothing to do with your external appearance… but as one aesthetic loving femme to another I have to say your stylistic choices lately have been PARTICULARLY ON POINT ❤❤❤

[@rhiannonm8132]

thank you for saying this, i’ve wanted to say the same but didn’t want to comment on her appearance when the point is the science 😂❤ you worded it perfectly

[@ΣτελιοςΠεππας]

It's a sad time when you have to apologize before you can complement a woman on her appearance.

[@rhiannonm8132]

@@ΣτελιοςΠεππαςnah, it just shows you’re not only valuing her for her appearance as that’s how women have been seen for so long. it’s rare to compliment a man on his appearance, usually you compliment his intellect or something. but it’s common to let a woman’s appearance override everything else she does or let it impact how you see her accomplishments/what she’s saying. a comments section full of people talking about how she looks instead of the science she’s passionate about would be unfortunate no? but that’s the reality a lot of times. or at least it was. that’s the unfortunate part, not the apologizing, which is just showing empathy and an understanding of what women experience.

[@ΣτελιοςΠεππας]

Im pretty sure there are 3 kinds of hippos. We cant forget the Canadian House Hippo

[@eddiefraley]

And lest we forget, the singular HipHoppotamus, roommate of the Rhymenoceros.

Also the legendary Finnish Moomin.

And the Potomac River Horse.

My sister actually thought those tiny hippos were a thing. Ya, she's not all that smart. Cool commercial though.

[@TheDopekitty]

My 32 year old has loved hippos forever so I bought her a Moo Deng shirt for Xmas this year

[@chickensalad3535]

That’s so sweet!

[@phasm42]

I think part of Moo Deng's adorableness is her twitchiness 😅

[@JurassicWilderness]

Have seen pygmy hippos before at the Singapore Zoo. This zoo also participate in the pygmy hippo breeding program.

[@amelias.2509]

Finding out her name translates as "Bouncy Pork" takes the cutest to another level!❤😂

[@JurassicWilderness]

Moo Deng has become a superstar and has become viral worldwide. She is also way cuter than any puppy.

[@mrbubbles293]

She’s cool but let’s not exaggerate. 😅

[@Reyma777]

There’s a mistake in the video. The common hippo is not the second largest land animal after elephants. White and Indian Rhinos tend to outweigh common hippos.

[@pedroassuncao4847]

i would never. EVER suspect that hippos were nocturnal animals '-'

[@worldoffood123]

That was a shock to me too! The footage we see is always during the day, but I guess that's probably just cuz it's hard to film at night.

[@lachouette_et_le_phoque]

I was confused by that, because often nocturnal animals avoid daytime predators, but surely that can't be the case for hippos. I looked it up and as far as I understand, they have to be active at night because their skin dries out in the sun quickly and the sunscreen is helpful, but not enough to avoid that and overheating, so they are bound to the water during the day. It did also say that they had periods of activity during the day in the water, so that's why it's not too hard to find footage.

[@Steve-ev6vx]

They come onto land to feed at night.

[@Cherrymilktea]

Hippos were one of my favorite animals since I was a child. It's awesome to hear Danielle Dufault to not only talk about the two species, but also their differences. I also love how she talks about Moo Deng and how her viral sensation is spreading awareness to her species. Bless u, Animalogic 💖

[@zenventus]

I will be buying the book. I love the book. It also straight up. Looks like a zoo book and I love it

[@SilentRacer911]

Danielle, something is up with this channel and I have no idea what it is, when I try to watch it rarely on my smart TV, only languages other than English are available. I have YT premium, I watch thousands of hours a month. This is the ONLY channel that does it. Today, this video is available in French, German, Hindi, Indonesian, Italian, Japanese, Portuguese, and US Spanish. It works fine in English on the phone, it’s just very weird

[@MisterCynic18]

Same. I just want to understand this channel again 😭

[@LeMAD22]

KZbin translation is hot garbage. Channels should never ever use it. My video plays automatically in (horrendous) translated french. If I'm here it's to watch the video in its original language, not a translation.

[@JesmondBeeBee]

Oh, I've been having that too! If I watch it on the KZbin app on my TV, using Firestick, it's in Portuguese. But it's in English on my phone. 🤷‍♀️ (It's very cool that the video is available in various languages, though.)

[@idontknowwhatahandleisohwell]

3 haircuts and 3 outfits in one video. Danielle is cuttlefish.

[@austinhornbeck5060]

"Shut up! I want Moo Deng!" - if you know you know. Great video as always. Love the book and illustrations.

[@SorenAlba54]

It is insane of how quickly this little creature became an Internet sensation overnight just some moments after it was born. I recall you talking about what the Colombian government plans to deal with the invasive hippos since the local people made a living out of their very existence after Escobar’s demise. Personally, I would’ve either captured them all and placed them in a zoo, relocate them to certain areas in the African continent where their numbers can climb or put them down. I despise the 3rd option but the only way to stop this problem once and for all is if they were no longer there. Whatever the decision is, they better make it fast because if these animals turn for some reason and cause harm to the locals, that’s on them for not taking evasive action and complete negligence.

[@Apoc2K]

You had me at "Pablo Escobar's invasive cocaine hippo's".

[@Nintenboy01]

Moo Deng's mom is almost always just eating

[@ConcerninglyWiseAlligator]

5:19 So you are telling me the Colombian government is DEALING with the coke hippos?

[@goldentriforce29]

It’s difficult to get rid of them. They don’t belong in Colombia and are affecting the ecosystem

[@nymbledigitz8453]

[@erikcharlat9844]

[@GetToThePointAlready]

The part about Hippos being second largest land animals is incorrect. The second largest land animal is the Rhino. Hippos are the third largest.

[@llaftsewyelrebmik5103]

I really needed you to draw a hippo, Danielle!

[@evgeniydragondog]

Pygmys looks like mammal, while full size hippo looks like something horrifying

[@grayrook8637]

I can't quite buy island dwarfism removing the hippo instinct of being an unbridled killing machine.

[@MisterCynic18]

I would really like to know why I've lost english audio options for all the animalogic videos that have released in the past month 🙃

[@thomask9694]

After starting the video, as a long time follower and native German-speaker, I was totally confused about the really bad computerized German language and my first thought was "Have I clicked on an imposter?" This kind of AI-generated language is only used by shady foreign advertisements here in Germany. Please don't force that on your followers!

[@Bob_Lennart]

You know what... Moo Deng suddenly seems less adorable once you learn she is in fact covered in "blood sweat"

[@fireballninja01]

One fun thing that I must mention about the columbian hippos is that there were semi aquatic megafauna relatively recently in that area, so they are actually filling a unique niche and may be a legitimate benefit

[@serfranklin6022]

7:38 hippos are the third largest land animal, the white rhino is the second (technically the fourth, if you count the two species of elephant, African and Asian)

[@Fede_99]

I think I read that the ancestors of pigmy hippos were already small sized, so this trait just didn't change that much overtime, therefore they shouldn't count as an example of insular dwarfism.

[@Achieme]

A bald man once said "moo Deng is gonna kill someone, he will soon one day develop the taste for human flesh, you can see it biting the zoo keeper"
