Although hippopotamuses cannot swim particularly well, they spend nearly all day in the water. They cannot simply drift along because they're just too heavy. If they wish to cross a river, they allow themselves to sink to the bottom and walk along the riverbed to the other shore. Hippopotamuses can hold their breath underwater for up to 30 minutes.
