Change article name to Hippo

I request that the article's name be changed from Hippopotamus to simply just Hippo. 70.50.199.125 (talk) 08:21, 10 March 2024 (UTC)

Or, at greater length, there is already a redirect of that name so if you search on Hippo you end up at Hippopotamus. Velella 14:50, 10 March 2024 (UTC)

Distribution map is not right

There are hippos in Lake Tana in Ethiopia. But while the lake is visible in this map, there is no hippo range marked on it. 2A02:8011:EB50:0:C4B4:16A7:9A0A:FA6C (talk) 21:31, 12 March 2024 (UTC)
