Additionally, hippos - despite being massive - have almost no fat on them. All of that impressive bulk is muscle.
2% body fat. Compare that to Elephants, which are around 8-10%, or rhinos, which are 10-20%.
The average human is around 20-40%, for reference.
They're *all* muscle.

'Overall, it’s more of an issue with the material than the actors...“No Good Deed” is a highlight for Erivo’s singing and acting.'
Hope it isn't too soon for this, but that is also true for the first movie.
