But wild hippos are usually only native to Africa and their escape after Escobar’s death has left Colombia with an unexpected problem. Due to reproduction, there are now dozens roaming around one of the country’s rivers. This episode looks at how the presence of these hippos affects Colombia’s biodiversity and how people became fond of their presence. Every Tuesday, starting 11/27/28, there will be a new episode posted to YouTube and the Vox Borders Facebook Watch page.Check out the links below to stay up-to-date!
