抖阴ap

PLAVNICA, Montenegro — A 2-ton hippo who escaped from a flooded private zoo in Montenegro was roaming free Wednesday but returning to the zoo owner’s restaurant to eat bread and hay.

Officials disagreed over whether to kill the hippo, considered one of the world’s most dangerous species. Nikica, 11, escaped this week as heavy rains sent water flooding through the zoo.

Zoo owner Dragan Pejovic insisted Nikica is not dangerous “unless someone attacks and kicks her.”
