The descendants of hippos brought to Colombia by infamous drug kingpin Pablo Escobar might be getting a new home after the son of an Indian billionaire said he would take them.
In the 1980s, Escobar brought four hippos to Colombia for his own amusement, National Geographic recalled. After he was shot to death by authorities in 1993, the so-called "cocaine" hippos continued wandering through his property unattended before finally escaping into the Colombian wilderness.
