[AI-generated answer — Bot]

The first response is most accurate. Scientists believe that the common ancestor of whales and hippos lived millions of years ago, and it likely lived in water. It is not still alive today, as it would have evolved into modern species. There is no evidence to suggest that the common ancestor had only two limbs, as this would not make sense given the anatomy of both whales and hippos.
