A truly amazing encounter with one of the world's most enigmatic ungulates. When I first saw this Pygmy Hippo, it was resting on the ground a few meters off the trail, covered with sweat droplets. After about an hour of waiting, it got up and slowly walked through the forest. It did not appear to mind my presence.
Since CEM forest Ecoguards, this has a high chance to be an excrement of the rare hippo species of the area, recently by the way, saw in Taï park
