    I second this idea. There's a lot that can be done with Hippos if they're added:

    -They could be a neutral mob since real hippos are highly aggressive if provoked.

    -They could spend the day in the water and come out onto land at night to feed/graze (real hippos do this iirc).

    -They could have an intimidation animation where they open their mouths and, if that fails, charge at whatever provoked them.

    -They'd be surprisingly fast and hard to take down, since hippos in the real world are among the most dangerous animals in Africa.

    -They could have a unique animation with melons since there are videos that I've seen of hippos crushing Melons in their jaws and eating them.

    -Some Hippos could naturally fight each other if there's a shortage of water in the area.

    -Hippos could mainly spawn in Savanna, Jungle, and/or Swamp Biomes given those biomes are where real hippos generally live.

    I just think it would be awesome to see Hippos in Minecraft so I support this idea.
