The Most Fabulous Hippo

While me and my fellow professor Zack were on a diving expedition, we made an amazing discovery. Deep at the bottom of the ocean we found the largest hippo that I had ever seen. As we got closer to the hippo we noticed that it had a pig's nose and eagle wings, this was the reason we named the creature a hipagle. The hipagle was very protective of the area that he was in so it was very tough to get close, but me and my partner bravely crept closer to the large creature. We then realized that the hippo was beginning to become very afraid of us. We offered the hippo some food but he quickly flew out of the water and high into the sky. My fellow professor Zack and I quickly took flight with our jetpacks and followed our new discovery. After hours of following the hipagle he retreated into a humungous cave at the top of a mountain, in the cave was the largest nest I had ever seen in my life. In the nest were absolutely gigantic eggs. These eggs were as large as a small boat, as we were about to go deeper into the cave to find our hipagle the eggs cracked open!

From the egg emerged a baby hipagle, the baby was screaming very loud so it alerted the older hipagle. The elder hipagle came rushing from deep within the cave to protect its babies. My partner and I quickly left and hid just outside the cave. After we had thought that the hipagle had forgot about us we crept quietly back into the cave, this time though we crept past the nest and deep into the cave.

There deep within the cave we found the most amazing thing we had ever seen. There was a whole world of the hipagle species! They were all sitting in a huge field of a very different kind of flower that we also had not seen ever before. We did not travel into the mysterious world because we thought that we had disturbed the hipagle enough. We hope to back some day and discover more about the new species of animal.

We hope that young people will one day study this new animal and that it will be discovered as the amazing animal that it is.
