Bring back the Hippo

Before NF came out, there was the scribe article saying that there'd be be the pygmy hippopotamus. People went out in the WPE and found it and got one.

This was one of the things that i really wanted from NF as it seemed really cool, and could join my pet collection. But then, woe is me, i follow the map guildwiki had, and i only find the crocodile instead. I look in lots of places, and i find nothing.

Then i look on guildwiki a couple of days ago, only to discover that it's a pretty certain bet that anet has taken the hippo out of the game because it's a "threatened species" on some list, and some people may get all upset if they see a hippo die in the game. It's a game.

/sarcasm
Oh no, the hippo died, that means a hippo died in real life, oh woe is me what shall i do
/endsarcasm

In short, bring back the hippo. if people get all upset about a hippo pet, then they don't have to get one, or they can just deal with it and realise it's a game

They did the same thing with panda in factions,i think!
