（单词翻译）

How do you like a behind-the-scenes look at one of the nature's most luxurious¹ full service, hippos' spas.
Our dominant² male hippo customer has already arrived here at the Mezima Spring in Kenya, Africa. The carp goes right to work. It uses its wide, vast big mouth to scour³ the hippo's hide. The hippo gets squeaky clean skin, and the fish gets a rich buffet⁴ of dead skin, algae⁵ and parasites⁶.

How about that tail that looks kind of like a toilet brush, the cichlid fish takes care of that. Now how about, well, how can I say this discreetly⁷, the hippo's hindquarters, where the hippo produces hippo dung. The barbel fish eagerly dives in here, especially when the hippo was in dung production mode. The barbel is so eager for what the hippo is trying to get rid of that they will race after him like an autograph seeker chasing a rock star.

Finally,the hippo opens its mouth, home of the good stuff. And fish rush in like  hungry shoppers at a half-off big sale.

The hippo was enjoying the full treatment, and after it's done, enjoys a relaxing yawn of relief.
