Indian Billionaire Heir Offers to Relocate Colombia’s “Cocaine Hippos”
Indian magnate Anant Ambani has offered to relocate 80 “cocaine hippos” from Colombia to his Vantara wildlife sanctuary. These hippos, descendants of Pablo Escobar’s private zoo, have become an invasive species endangering native wildlife, prompting Colombia’s plan to cull them. Ambani proposed a humane solution, offering lifelong care for the animals in a specially designed environment at his extensive conservation center in Gujarat, India, and has invited Colombian officials to visit the facility.
