Adventure World (Shirahama-cho, Wakayama Prefecture) will hold a "Hippo Toothpaste Event" on Monday, June 4, in honor of "Tooth and Mouth Health Week" from Monday, June 4 to Sunday, June 10.

Eating is essential for both humans and animals to survive, and it is important to maintain healthy teeth and mouths. A veterinarian will give a lecture and quiz on teeth, comparing human and animal teeth, so that even small children can get a good sense of the importance of teeth.
At the event, we will also brush hippopotamuses' teeth clean using a large toothbrush together with children from local kindergartens who have visited the event.
