Trivia

Historical note: Pygmy Hippos were found in Lahtenda Bog during the Guild Wars Nightfall World Preview Event, but these have since been replaced with crocodiles in the final release of Nightfall.

• According to Gaile Gray the reason was technical, not because hippos are a threatened species (as suggested at the IUCN Red List).
