    First, amazing he’s offering this… but aside from housing and feeding 80 hippos… how on earth do you get EIGHTY hippos from Colombia to India?

    ONE would be challenging. 10 would be logistically difficult.

    EIGHTY??!?!??🤔

      You use a livestock carrier. People already ship thousands of live cows and sheep with those. The largest ones can ship up to 7000 heads of cattle.
