The Hippo is one of the latest pets introduced in the Mega Safari Harvest Event in Grow a Garden. This legendary pet is a money-making machine. It has a special ability that allows it to eat a watermelon and sell it for a higher value. Not just this, it also triggers the latest Monsoon mutation on a random crop, increasing its value by 23 times.
In this guide, we will tell you how to get it and explore its traits and why it’s a must-have pet.
Hippo Pet in Grow a Garden
The Hippo is a chunky, gray animal with a cheerful face. It’s a Legendary-tier pet, which means it is harder to unlock than the Cape Buffalo, Hyena, and Gecko, but its unique crop-boosting abilities make it worth it.
| Rarity | Milestone Required |
|---|---|
| Legendary | 230 billion points |
You can buy the Hippo from the Safari Shop for 400 million Sheckles or 539 Robux once the global milestone reaches 230 billion points.
