Chapter 419: Can hippos swim?

The friends in the live broadcast room watched this scene with wide-eyed eyes and just wanted to shout 666.
The hippopotamus stood honestly, completely unlike the ferocious appearance of beating the crocodile just now.
It was back to being cute and honest, exactly the same as the hippopotamus in the zoo in the city.
The scene that people have just seen seems to be an illusion.
A scene of natural harmony between humans and animals.
Ye Tian's face was calm, he patted Hippo's head, and said directly: "Da Hei, can you help me cross the river?"
The water friends were a little confused.
What kind of name is this?
People didn't trample you to death, even if you didn't even ask for it.
"666"
"God is so dark!"
"It looks like the name of a dog, rhubarb, rich and honorable, it doesn't sound as good as this."
"Anchor, you said, if hippos can understand, will they trample you to death."
"I feel that the anchor will probably be trampled to death."
"Hahahaha~~"
Then when the water friends spit out, the hippo slowly squatted its short legs and squatted in front of Ye Tian.
Friends: "..."
Hippo not only accepted the name, but also got down.
This is a hippo with no moral integrity!
Ye Tian immediately turned over and waved to Ami and Pingtou.
The flat-headed brother walked over with a wary look.
Ami also hesitated for a moment, and slowly approached.
Until Ami and Pingtou had climbed onto the hippo's back, Ye Tian smiled and stretched out his hand, patted the hippo's head, and the hippo slowly climbed up again.
Step by step, he walked back into the river again, slowly immersed in the water.
Sitting on the back of a hippopotamus, Ye Tian looked casual, and said to the live broadcast room: "I'll show you this. In fact, hippos can't swim."
Originally still thinking about the scene where the hippopotamus was crossing the river with Ye Tian on his back at this time, the shocked water friends, upon hearing this, came forward.
"What?!"
"Hippo can't swim?"
"Anchor, you are lying to a child! How could hippos not swim!"
"That's, the anchor, you said before. Hippos can't get out of the water most of the time. How can they not swim? Even after learning, I learned it."
"Hmm, the anchor, is fooling us again."
"Anchor, it's true or false, I also feel that your remarks are quite credible!"
"You all calm down, listen to the anchor first, after all, this is a kind of politeness, and then we will spray."
"Hahahaha~~Upstairs, you are a little skinny!"
"No! On Baidu Encyclopedia, it says that hippos are good at swimming!"
"This is a bit of a show! Anchor, what else do you have to say."
"It seems that the anchor has been planted this time, and I am quite happy."
"Hehehe~~Upstairs, fellow fellow"
But everyone is still relatively unified, that is, most hippos stay in the water, how can they not swim?
This question can be understood by thinking about it with your head.
How could it be possible to soak in the water all day without knowing how to swim?
There are even friends with fast hands, so they directly inquired about Baidu Baike and asked Du Niang if they had something to do.
I immediately saw that the information on the hippopotamus said it was good at swimming. This is still fake!
But often the truth is in the hands of a small number of people.
Ye Tian also fully anticipated everyone’s reaction. As for the Baidu Encyclopedia, the thing is only a reference and not rigorous. He continued: "Hippos are a kind of amphibians. They live in groups, are afraid of cold, and like warm and humid climates. They almost They sleep or rest in the river or near the river during the day, and come out to eat at night. They mainly feed on aquatic plants and occasionally eat land crops, mainly grass. When food is scarce, they also eat meat.
But this does not mean that they can swim. Hippos are huge, but they walk lightly in the water and look like they can swim.
As for why it can’t swim, it’s still very good to survive in the river, because hippos generally live in shallow waters, and they have a special set of flexible muscle tissue like a valve that can close their ears and nostrils during diving. , Each diving time can reach about 5-10 minutes, to eat the aquatic plants in the river, but unlike aquatic mammals have the physiological ability to adapt to water, living on land for a long time, can be Running at a speed of 20 kilometers per hour, it can only be regarded as a semi-aquatic animal.
Hippos usually submerge their whole body in the water, and only expose their ears, eyes and nostrils to the surface of the water, so that they can not only breathe normally, but also detect danger in time without being noticed by the enemy. In addition to being safe and cool, water can also help support its large and heavy body and make it walk freely in the water.
So although the hippopotamus always stays in the water, it can't swim and can only dive. When frightened, usually avoid getting into the water. I spend most of my time in the water every day. When lurking underwater, I usually put my head out of the water to breathe once every 3 to 5 minutes, but it can stay lurking for about half an hour without coming out of the water for breathing. "
After listening to this, the friends of the water, some of them were also messed up immediately, they were originally grassroots.
Seeing what Ye Tian said was serious, it didn't seem like a lie at all, so they didn't know which version to believe for a while.
In general, Ye Tian is more convincing, after all, he said so much information.
"real or fake?"
"I think what the anchor said is quite reasonable."
"The anchor didn't miss it, the anchor is right."
"But Baidu Encyclopedia clearly states that hippos are good at swimming!"
"I also feel that what the anchor said is right~EbookFREE.me~ I still believe in Baidu Baike. After all, this is a well-integrated information."
"But Baidu Encyclopedia is also written by people!"
"Anyway, I believe the anchor is correct."
There are many people who are willing to believe that what Ye Tian said is correct, but after all, some people say that the hippopotamus written on Baidu Encyclopedia is good at swimming, so these people did not speak, but just watched curiously.
Ye Tian wasn't interested in this kind of arguing at first, but watching the water friends arguing slowly changed, and even began to curse, he had to take care of it.
He waved his hand and said, "Stop, let the facts speak! Baidu Encyclopedia, that is just a reference, not rigorous. Hippos encounter an emergency, just like us, people who can’t swim, also There will be dog planing, which is the instinct to survive, but it is not swimming. As for the proposition of good swimming, it is impossible to hold. Now the hippopotamus has to carry us across the river. The depth of the water in the middle of the river is definitely It’s over the height of a hippopotamus. Look at the hippopotamus floating on the water when it crosses the river. It’s better to sink slowly. Good swimming will never sink to the bottom."
A simple and effective way to make the facts speak more convincingly.
If he keeps explaining and telling the flowers, some people still don't believe it, because they have seen how it is written on Baidu Baike.
Ye Tian's words immediately aroused many people's approval.
"It makes sense!"
"Right right, let the facts speak."
"Yes, Baidu Baike is wrong too! I found one last time, but it was not completely correct."
Everyone stopped arguing immediately, watching the scenes in the live room curiously, and followed the hippopotamus toward the center of the river.
