1. Hippos and turtles living together! I knew this would happen!

Damn Massachusetts liberals. First they cause all that hubbub at the Catholic doohickey. Then they go and legalize that two dudes gettin' married thingamawhacker.

It was only a matter of time until you saw interspecial maternal relationships!

2. LOL! Love in all forms is beautiful!

4. Suuure, next thing ya know we're gonna see hippos with shells

running around. Mark my words!

:evilgrin:

10. Oh suuuuure....the ol' "Just good friends" nonsense

That Hippo is CLEARLY an aggressor with good intentions the FARTHEST thing from it's naughty, dirty little mind. Every animal knows Turtles are easy but being easy doesnt make them slutty. Every animal ALSO knows that Hippos are agressive, mean and spray their poop all over the place when they want to look cool.

Ever seen a Turtle spray poop?

Didn't think so.

Naughty Hippo.

Bad Hippo

On edit to add;

Just LOOK at the Turltes head. She CLEARLY is not interested. She just wants to finish reading her magazine.

12. Yes THEY are good friends, but what happens when Mrs. Tortoise

has babies of her own, and they are raised in the company of that hippo. You just know there's going to be a natural curiosity there.

Well, perhaps we should just take a wait and see approach :)

13. This baby hippo lost it's mother in the tsunami

in Dec. The baby was washed out to sea at first, then washed
ashore alone when the waves came back inland.

Since it had no mother it adopted this turtle. It has become
very attached to it and considers it his surrogate mom. The
story was on the redjellyfish.com homepage a while ago, then
made the rounds of the internet.

The pictures of them together are so touching.
