By the way, did you know that hippos are related to pigs and to camels & whales!?! Check out this page for their common ancestor who does not look at all like them. Newer DNA analysis suggests the whales and hippos are closer to each other than either is to pigs. Morphology can be missleading.
In any case, pigs basking in their pig pond sure do remind us of hippos!

I thought eight but will go with seven too after closer inspection of the big picture one of the hippos turned out to be a rock. Tricky.
