    Is this Anant Ambani?

    Edit: Yup. Fuck that guy. Fuck that whole family. Asshole is building a private zoo under the guise of saving animals.

    Well, if he wants them, and is going to pay for transport… Definitely better than killing them. I don’t think Colombians would mind if he took all 160.

      Not at all. He can knock himself out capturing and taking as many as he wishes. As long as they are removed from the environment they are wrecking, it’s all the same if he pays to kill or relocate them. And obviously no one likes killing large mammals if there’s an easy alternative.

          Okay, sorry, most people would prefer not to kill them if there’s a simple nonlethal removal. But practically speaking, to eliminate them entirely from Colombian ecosystems, there’s going to have to be some sort of cull.

    First, amazing he’s offering this… but aside from housing and feeding 80 hippos… how on earth do you get EIGHTY hippos from Colombia to India?

    ONE would be challenging. 10 would be logistically difficult.

    EIGHTY??!?!??🤔

      Do you know how much money one billion is? How many billions does he have? It will be like paying for a coffee for him.

      You use a livestock carrier. People already ship thousands of live cows and sheep with those. The largest ones can ship up to 7000 heads of cattle.
