It is a hippo, and if I am not mistaken, he is packing a bottle of beer, and is wearing what very much looks like a SS helmet:
(And, I can confirm, the yellow road sign behind his head warns of Kangaroos.)
Just to put him in context, here he is hanging with his mates:
We found him prominently displayed at the 2010 Kirmes... and we are still not sure what to make of him...
note: okay, a few people have advised me that the hippos are NOT wearing SS helmets, just standard storm trooper helmets with an Iron Cross... very different animal apparently. But still, I'm quite sure they are meant to be hippos, and that IS a bottle of beer... I stand firm on that.
