Hippomenes is my one and only naked double rex dumbo. He's very squirmy and energetic and has little patience for cuddling. Despite this, he's very people-oriented and is very excited to meet just about anyone. Hippo's favorite thing to do is sit on the paper tray of the nonfunctioning printer atop the boys' cage and brux. He also has the unfortunate distinction of being the only one to get his tail bitten (repeatedly) by Ugly Bugly.

He is reportedly the result of a local science project about genetics, which could possibly explain a lot.
