I respect what they are doing for jessica. But come one now we are talking about a hippo, Wild Animals althoug babies, do grow up into Wild Animals. More times then none, people who have Wild Animals as pets, end up paying the price sometimes with their lives.
according to the vet jessica has to reach a curtain weight... maybe however its a good thing shes not fed properly when animals or people to for that matter "mature" physically all sorts of bad things can happen. And they dont stop when you hit 23, even leaving home can cause issues of the sort to occur.
IN short If jessica matures she could become dangerous. VERY dangerous Having never lived with hippos she will be in between two worlds.
The kindest safest thing and the wisest to is give her to to a large professional zoo or wildlife park.
