The Hippos of Pablo Escobar

This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice.

This is the bizarre, true story of how four smuggled zoo animals became a drug kingpin's most enduring and dangerous legacy. When Pablo Escobar’s empire fell, his hippos stayed—breeding in the Colombian wild and turning a drug lord's vanity project into an unstoppable ecological crisis. Over two parts, we trace the journey from Hacienda Nápoles to the Magdalena River, exploring what happens when the world’s deadliest land mammal meets the unchecked ego of a narco-billionaire.
