Who Am I? Animal Babies. Africa

I look like a horse, but I can’t be tamed. As soon as I’m born, I can stand up, and an hour later I’m already walking behind my mum. Who am I?

Africa is a huge continent with some of the most impressive wild places in the world. The hippopotamuses that cool off in the waters of its rivers, the gorillas that play in its jungles, the giraffes that travel across its savannahs, and many other animals are in danger of extinction.
