And a story in Ivory Coast says that anyone who sees the tail of a pygmy hippo and laughs will go crazy. "There's nowhere else they can go," says Flacke. "Ivory Coast is probably the most well equipped for that," says Flacke. They know that the pygmy hippo is an iconic species, maybe a keystone species for the ecosystem.
