Where on Earth are they going to get the hippo from?!

Now I'm thinking about hippo milk...

That's what I was wondering - surely they don't farm hippos? Unless they're borrowing one from Newquay zoo?

Isn't it funny that people seem to be more concerned about the acquisition of a hippo than the fact that two farm animals are getting married? Interesting!

Yep, it's for real!

The website is www.dairylandfarmworld.com and hopefully we'll get some pictures of the happy couple up after the event!

Funny story, unfunny pun! Good point about the hippo interest - bulls and cows getting married is obviously sooooo yesterday.

Reminds me of the BBC story of the Sudanese man forced to marry his goat back in 2006 (qurl.com/1ctf8). I think it was their most popular story all year :)
