River hippopotamus stock photo

River hippopotamus The river hippopotamus is the 3rd heaviest land mammal (after the elephant and white rhino). Hippos spend most of their day in the water and will often come onto land in order to bask in the sun, but they never wander too far so that they can easily slip back into the water if they become over-heated or dehydrated. The skin is very sensitive and will crack if exposed to direct sunlight for long. Hippos sleep underwater and sleeping hippos rise to breathe, resurfacing as automatically as breathing itself.

Frequently asked questions

What's a royalty-free license?
Royalty-free licenses let you pay once to use copyrighted images and video clips in personal and commercial projects on an ongoing basis without requiring additional payments each time you use that content. It's a win-win, and it's why everything on iStock is only available royalty-free — including all Toronto Zoo images and footage.
What kinds of royalty-free files are available on iStock?
Royalty-free licenses are the best option for anyone who needs to use stock images commercially, which is why every file on iStock — whether it’s a photo, illustration or video clip — is only available royalty-free.
How can you use royalty-free images and video clips?
From social media ads to billboards, PowerPoint presentations to feature films, you're free to modify, resize and customize every asset on iStock — including all Toronto Zoo images and footage — to fit your projects. With the exception of "Editorial use only" photos (which can only be used in editorial projects and can't be modified), the possibilities are limitless.
