Your trouble is misusing tenses and very awkawrd sentence strucuture. Your sentences have tendency to sound redudnat and repatitious. i.e.
He wears pyjamas when he wants to sleep.
(a) He wears pyjamas when he wants to sleep. - improved version: He usually wears pyjamas to sleep
b) The hippopotamus ishaving its bathing at the river. - The hippopotamus is bathing in / a
