This is the humorous moment a playful hippo splashes its bottom towards shocked zoo visitors in Indonesia.

Footage shared on October 13 shows the adult hippopotamus defecating and wagging its tail, creating a spray of watery faeces at a zoo in Surabaya.

Instead of depositing its waste directly into the pond, the animal is seen waving its tail and flinging it around the area.

A hippo is sometimes known as a river horse as the name 'hippopotamus' comes from the ancient Greek words 'hippos', meaning 'horse', and 'potamos', meaning 'river'.
