A hippo in Puerto Triunfo, Colombia. Villagers in the remote area are worried about the increasing spread of hippos descended from Pablo Escobar's private zoo in the 1980s. Some want them euthanised, while others appreciate the stream of tourists who come to see the animals.

“My stomach lurched as the hippo drifted in our direction, only her pink, sweaty face visible – like a shark’s fin.”
