Common Hippopotamus
The word hippopotamus uses the Greek root words that combine to mean “River Horse”. They are incapable of really swimming due to their immense bulk, instead running along the river bottoms. Getting to see this underwater gallop is really only possible in the filtered pools at zoos, and allows you to understand how they got their name.
