D&D 5E Where is the Hippopotamus in 5e?

[Shades of Eternity]

I'm not finding it.

Additional question.

How can you get a hippopotamus outside its normal tropical climate?

I can't really see a wooly version.

Make them British spacefarers.

I'm not kidding. That's a thing in Spelljammer.

I don't think there are official stats for hippos.

Here are two homebrew ones that look good at first glance:

Hippopotamus – 5th Edition SRD

Hippopotamus (5e Creature) - D&D Wiki

I would probably combine the two in some form, but I am not a hippo expert.

In a pinch if I'd need one, I'd give the rhinoceros a swim speed and call it good.

The hippopotamus was deemed too dangerous for parties consisting of characters from 1-20.

Dangit, if you'd posted this a couple weeks ago, we could have gotten you a hippopotomus for X-mas!

Sounds realistic!

There really should be a creature that is to the hippotomus that is not unlike the aurumvorax is to the wolverine.
