Run Nikica, Run!

What happens when Nikica, an 11-year-old hippo at the Montenegro zoo, escapes from her enclosure? Hilarity, of course:

"When I got out from my house to feed my cow, I saw a hippo standing in front of the stall," said villager Nikola Radovic. "I thought I was going mad."

Since the flood waters which facilited her escape have yet to recede, zoo owner Dragan Pejovic has decided to allow Nikica an extended stay in the village.

Let's hope the cows don't mind.
