History of Hippopotamus for Christmas

I Want a Hippopotamus for Christmas was a 1953 song performed on the Ed Sullivan Show by a singer named Gayla Peevey, who was ten years old at the time. A local promoter launched a campaign to present Gayla with an ACTUAL hippopotamus, which she then donated to the local zoo. Hmmmm... I guess that she didn't REALLY want a hippopotamus for Christmas! The hippo lived for over fifty years.
