Kilimanjaro Safaris – Hippopotamuses for Christmas

Published December 25, 2012 by Disneyways.com

Every year at Christmas the radio stations here in Orlando play that old song, I Want A Hippopotamus for Christmas!

Here are some actual pictures we took on Animal Kingdom’s Kilimanjaro Safaris recently! I hope you enjoy them and have a magical day!

Check Out This Eland Starting a WILD Fashion Trend!

This was the most adorable behavior I have ever seen from an animal at the Kilimanjaro Safari Tour at Disney’s Animal Kingdom. This Eland is making herself a grass hat. At least – that’s what it looked like she was doing. Watch her as she puts her antlers in the tall grass and turns just enough to entangle the grass so she can wear it on top of her head! Then she sort- of swings her tail and sticks up her nose as if to say, “I know I look HOT!” Everyone was cracking up. It was the cutest thing!

November is a great time to do the Safari Tour because the weather is so nice! These photos were taken around 4PM and the animals seemed to be enjoying the beautiful day. I have more Safari pictures coming – I just felt that these were deserving of their own post.
