The zoo is an artificial environment where all species of animals can live in the right place, under the right conditions, and most importantly, the species of animals at the edge of extinction can also grow successfully.
We would think animals in zoos are safe. The idea is good, but trouble can happen anywhere and anytime. This was confirmed at the Pécs Zoo. It happened that you can't count on. The fact that a visitor, a little girl, drew her wallet into the pool of hippos. Bálint, the male hippopotamus, was interested in the novelty with interest. He looked at the wallet for food, so he consumed it comfortably.
The caregivers were told what happened, who immediately began to act and searched the pool. Because they didn't find the wallet, even the water was dropped, so the caregivers and the wallet could only be avoided. As the object never came out, they came to the conclusion that Bálint could swallow it.
Beyond the inconvenience, they feared that the purse would cause a health problem at the hippopotamus. Though the situation might seem funny, it could have really caused great trouble, so the experts decided to chase the wallet with laxative to prevent trouble. Many doses of laxatives were needed to achieve results for such an animal. After three days of waiting, the swallowed wallet was really discovered.
