Hippo

The hippo is the unofficial Second Life Mascot.

All started with Darwin Appleby's thread about hippo. Progressively, hippo overran the grid :

  • Hippo could be found in the Hikaru Yamamoto 's zoo.
  • Hippo statues and hippo avatars became very popular in Second Life.
  • Hippo mania touched Lindens themself (read this Example).
  • An hippo-easter-egg was added to the viewer (press Ctrl-Alt-⇧ Shift-H)![1]

Whenever bugs were found, hippos would be unleashed and they would skip through SL stopping bugs and evil gnomes (who planted bugs)!

Oh the great hippo! Stomper of gnomes! Savior of all Second Life! How we worship thee!
