It looks a bit like Saba, in the Caribbean. 82.161.213.206 (talk) (please sign your comments with ~~~~)
- It's a hippo
I think the bumps on the top of the peak make a look like a hippopotamus-shaped island. 173.245.56.200 19:48, 7 September 2014 (UTC)
Is it just me or is the title text explanation trying to say something? 108.162.216.112 (talk) (please sign your comments with ~~~~)
