|

Additional Notes: |
|
Chinese (traditional) ..... 厚皮、草食性、偶蹄的哺乳類動物,體型明顯比一般河馬小,原生於西非的森林與沼澤;被認為是其屬的唯一倖存物種,因為據信馬達加斯加侏儒河馬已經滅絕。 |
Dutch ..... Dikhuidige, plantenetende eventenige hoefzoogdieren, aanzienlijk kleiner dan het gewone nijlpaard. Ze zijn inheems in de bossen en moerassen van westelijk Afrika. Verondersteld wordt dat ze de enige nog levende soort van hun genus zijn, aangezien van het pygmeenijlpaard van Madagaskar wordt verondersteld dat het uitgestorven is. |
