Description
Lu, the hippo at Homosassa Springs Wildlife Park, is a naturalized Florida resident. When the state took over the park, only Florida wildlife was supposed to be on exhibit. Because he has been a resident of the park for nearly 50 years, local school children petitioned then governor Lawton Chiles to allow Lu to stay. Gov. Chiles granted Lu residency so that he could remain in his long time home. On Jan. 24, Lu will turn 54 years old; a very old hippo.
