The hippos of drug lord Escobar

The legendary drug lord Pablo Escobar had his own zoo.

In the 1980s, he bought some African hippos for it.

When Escobar was killed, the hippos escaped from the zoo.

In 1993, there were four, but now there are about 200.

Those hippos have become an invasive species.

They are a threat to local people and the environment.

The Colombian government came up with a plan to deal with the hippos.

Some of the hippos will be sterilized and others will be sent to zoos in other countries.

Some of the hippos may have to put to sleep.
