HIPPOS

After a courtesy call on the village chief, we board the pirogue, which can accommodate up to 8 people. The group of hippos is made up of half a dozen individuals, including a very powerful male. These animals are quite territorial and therefore readily threatening. And it's to cries of "Akas, Akas" ("come") that the guides will try to attract Rambo, Bijou, Dokol or Euphrasie! It's quite common to be able to admire them in the water or on the shore, provided you go early in the morning, when they are on the banks.
