    Cocaine Hippos

    So the next time you choose to appear in court you can ask the judge

    DO I HAVE THE SAME RIGHTS AS A COCAINE HIPPO?

    https://www.marketwatch.com/story/pa...es-01635190686

    ‘Cocaine hippos’ are descendants of animals that Escobar illegally imported to his Colombian ranch in the 1980s when he reigned over the country’s drug trade

    The offspring of hippos once owned by Colombian drug kingpin Pablo Escobar can be recognized as people or “interested persons” with legal rights in the U.S. following a federal court order.

    The case involves a lawsuit against the Colombian government over whether to kill or sterilize the hippos whose numbers are growing at a fast pace and pose a threat to biodiversity.

    An animal rights groups is hailing the order as a milestone victory in the long sought efforts to sway the U.S. justice system to grant animals personhood status. But the order won’t carry any weight in Colombia where the hippos live, a legal expert said.
