YouTuber Sun_Chaser has taken to his account to upload a video of a wild hippo casually roaming the main street in St. Lucia. This hippo is on a mission to explore his surroundings and is not concerned about who or what is in his way. This must have been such a majestic thing to witness?!

Considering that this is a wild animal, imagine the panic when a hefty hippo wanted a bit of attention and pulled into a petrol station? Although many would have stopped to admire him, naturally a bit of panic would set in.
