Hippos have pink milk. Hippo calves need an excess of iron to strengthen their bones, so mom's mammary gland is porous and absorbs her blood, making the milk a little pink.

A meniskos was a bronze disk mounted above the head of a statue in Ancient Greece to prevent bird feces from accumulating on the statue's head. This probably the origin of the halo in Christian art.
