Colombia is dealing with a unique animal issue: a growing population of wild hippos descended from Pablo Escobar's menagerie. Today around 170 hippos roam far beyond the infamous drug lord's former ranch, posing risks to communities and native wildlife. In response, the government has announced it will cull up to 80 of the animals in an effort to reduce their impact, but the plans have been met with criticism by animal rights activists. #Colombia #Hippos #PabloEscobar #Channel4News #C4News
