Check out this incredible image we found on From Where I Drone, in which a bloat of hippopotamuses take a mud bath in Serengeti National Park, northern Tanzania. A 2001 census found that roughly 20,000 hippos were living in Tanzania, and a new census is being completed this year in an effort to scale up conservation of the animals. Poachers reportedly target wild hippos for their teeth, which are profitable in Asia — almost 60 tons worth were allegedly exported to Hong Kong between 2004 and 2014.

A variety of flowers, ornamental grasses, and other plants grow at a nursery in Mount Vernon, Washington — a small city roughly 60 miles (96 km) north of Seattle. Mount Vernon is the county seat of Skagit County, which has a climate similar to Northern France and thus yields millions of tulips every year.
