Hippo sure is regulated: The common Hippo, Hippopotamus amphibius Linnaeus, 1758, is listed in Appendix II of the CITES convention. And some populations are even under stricter control. 
 
While antiques *should* be exempt, the truth is you have to follow international and local legislation & regulations to the letter...

 After search I have to agree but like David told I was aware about some sites where you can buy legal hippo ivory!?
