2-YEAR-OLD BOY SWALLOWED, SPIT OUT BY HIPPO

A 2-year-old Ugandan boy is recovering after a hippopotamus swallowed half of his body, but then spit him back out. The boy had reportedly been playing by himself outside his home near the shore of a lake in southwestern Uganda when the hippo grabbed him. A man who was nearby saw it happen and threw stones at the hippo, scaring it and causing it to release the victim from its mouth. The hippo retreated back into the lake and the boy was rushed to a hospital for treatment. Police said he escaped any serious injury.
* It’s a Christmapotomas miracle!
* It was a hungry hippo, not a HUNGRY hungry hippo.
* Hippos are herbivores. Was the kid a vegetarian?
* Guess who DOESN’T want a hippopotamus for Christmas?
* The people of Uganda need many things. To that list, add fencing.
