I am always hearing about how the hippo could kick any animal's *** and is the strongest animal and how no animal can take on a hippo. Do these people realize that there also Bull elephant still living in the wild. Commonsense would suggest to me that a bull elephant could easily scare off a hippo. There are also rhino's with the huge horn on the front of their snout, so I really don't know people consider the hippo to be able to kick any animal's ***. They say no animals will mess with the hippo and all this stuff about no animals wanting to get in a fight with the hippo.

Hippos live in the water, and elephants live on land. These two animals would not risk injury to fight, and would not start a confrontation. However, a male elephant is the strongest mammal in the world, and during the mating season are very aggressive.

Actually, there were a lot of cases when rhino killed an elephant, on the other hand, hippo would probably kill rhino. Ps - elephants are often afraid to drink water where there are lots of hippos.

A male adult of either of these species have no need to fear attack by any other animal except one of their own kind, so a confrontation would never happen.
