Hippo keeps nose to the ground -- literally

Feeling the heat, the hippo at the Toronto zoo rested unmoving, nose on the earth. For a confused moment, I thought I was looking at a plastic model. Only when he twitched his skin was I certain that he was real. The sign on his enclosure is in English and Swahili, promoting the illusion that one really is in Africa.
