A large, pinkish-gray hippopotamus stands on a paved surface, its mouth agape, revealing teeth and a pink interior. Its skin appears wet. To the left, a Caucasian female, wearing a light-colored top, holds a green, spherical object (consistent with a watermelon) with both hands, extending it towards the hippo. She is partially obscured by the rear of a dark blue vehicle, which has red taillights and "MAX" visible on its tailgate. Behind the hippo and the woman, a body of water is visible, adjacent to the paved area. The background features dense, green tropical foliage and tall trees. A light-colored, curved pole or branch extends diagonally in the upper right background. The scene depicts a person feeding a hippo on a rural roadside. This phenomenon, involving feral hippopotamuses, is specific to the Magdalena Medio region of Antioquia, Colombia, located east of the urban core of Medellín, where descendants of hippos from Hacienda Nápoles reside.
