Last night I watched an Explorer documentary on hippos, and I found it fascinating. I had read that they were the most dangerous animals in Africa, but I had no idea that their bodies were able to adapt so well to their environment. Despite what I studied in school, I had always pictured hippos as these huggable creatures that were soft, but sensitive about their weight.
What should one do to avoid getting gobbled alive by one, like the man in the documentary? Have you ever seen one up close that wasn’t locked up in captivity?
