Billionaire Offers Relocation For Colombian Hippo Herd
Anant Ambani, son of an Indian billionaire, has proposed a plan to manage the hippos brought to Colombia by Pablo Escobar in the 1980s. The animals are currently facing potential euthanasia due to damage caused to local river ecosystems. Ambani has offered to take responsibility for their care through a scientifically-based plan, according to the report. Billionaire Anant Ambani is offering to relocate a herd of 80 hippos currently facing slaughter in Colombia. The animals were originally brought to the country by a drug lord in the 1980s. A planned culling aims to protect local waterways and marshy flora from the animals' impact. Ambani intends to house the herd at his 3,500-acre private wildlife park in western India.
