Pretty sure the vast majority of people who live in an area with no hippos see them as basically manatees with stubby legs instead of fins.


People who DO live in areas with hippos though....

That hippo could have easily chomped that man in two then sprayed poop everywhere to assert dominance.

I'll always remember the 'Animal Face-off' episode where they pit a CGI hippo against a CGI bull shark. The shark kept trying to bite the hippo's sides but the hippo was too fat and thick-skinned and the hippo just ignored it. So it bit the hippo's tail off and then the hippo- presumably pissed because it couldn't spray poo poo anymore and turn and bit the shark in half then trundled off to find a snack.

EDIT: Oh drat, the hippo got a headshot.

Hippos are like the deadliest animal in Africa or some poo poo. I at least know they kill more people than lions every year. I'm surprised the dude didn't get mauled

Correct.

Giving a grizzly the old 'the gently caress do you want?" look and leaving it alone is a good plan.

I like the The wrecking ball one since he releases, "relaxes" / doesnt remain flush with the wall, but than remembers or a safety officer shouts into the ear piece.

Mosquitoes kill way more as a vector for malaria and other diseases.

I'm also kind of skeptical that hippos kill more than something like a venomous snake because people don't really come into contact with hippos all that often because there just aren't going to be a lot of them in the same spots as humans.
