The Pygmy Hippopotamus was a charmable animal found in the boggy areas of Istan.

Locations

 * Istan
 * Lahtenda Bog

Trivia

 * The Pygmy Hippo was featured during the Nightfall World Preview Event but it was removed prior to release because its model/skeleton was useful for only one creature.
 * Crocodiles were placed in the spawning locations used by the hippopotami.
 * The Hippo makes a reappearance in Eye of the North (hard mode only): when exploring the areas around Ventari's sanctuary (Arbor Bay), several Aggressive Hippopotamus will spawn; they cannot be charmed.
 * Developers need to limit the number of charmable animals for programming reasons (each possible pet means reserving additional data to be available for download in every zone). Other pets which have been removed or changed include the Panda, Crane, and the Fern Lizard.
