Drug Lord Hippos

Published: Aug. 10, 2020, 5 p.m.

Pablo Escobar was the biggest drug lord the world has ever known. At the height of his power, he had a near-monopoly on cocaine trade in the United States. He had a peak inflation-adjusted net worth of $60 billion dollars. He was personally responsible for thousands of murders and dozens of acts of terrorism in Colombia.

Today in Colombia, there are approximately 100 hippopotamuses roaming wild.

What do these two things have to do with each other? Well, everything.
