Mahali, a hippo residing at the Denver Zoo, will be moving to a natural wildlife preserve in Texas in mid-May, officials said. The zoo delayed his transit to the Lone Star State because it's taken time for him to get used to his mobile home - a jumbo transportation crate. He's almost - as the old saying goes - "Big as Texas." "Moving an animal as large as Mahali takes time, and his wellbeing was the top priority every step of the way," zoo officials said. "By following his lead and moving at his pace, he’s made incredible progress and is now comfortable and confident in his crate." [Photo: Denver Zoo]
