Hippo Eats Dwarf
Fal Leac
A hippopotamus has swallowed a dwarf in a circus accident in northern Thailand.
"A dwarf nicknamed Od, died when he bounced sideways from a trampoline and was
swallowed by a yawning hippopotamus, which was waiting to appear in the next
act, " the Pattaya Mail reported.
"Vets on the scene said Hilda the Hippo had a gag reflex that automatically
caused her to swallow."
The vets said it was the the first time the hefty vegetarian had ever eaten a
circus performer. He keeper commented that although Hilda had a slight weight
problem, she was on a strict diet which did not include dwarves.
"Unfortunately, the 1000-plus spectators continued to applaud wildly until
commonsense dictated there had been a tragic mistake.
"Police said the trampoline had be sent for forensic analysis on pretense that
it might be faulty. The Police commented that there is no evidence to support a
suicide by the circus performer despite his past history of alcoholism."
The vets have admistered a laxative to the Hippopotamus in order to speed the
recovery of the circus performer's remains.
