00:48 - The hippopotamus is one of the most aggressive

00:51 and ferocious creatures in the animal kingdom.

00:53 They are a formidable opponent for most animals

01:04 due to their size, strength, and aggression.

01:07 Hippos are dangerous creatures

01:16 that have killed more people than any other species,

01:19 including crocodiles.

01:21 The common hippo has extremely thick skin

01:30 that can be several inches thick and as tough as rubber,

01:33 making it difficult to pierce their hides.

01:43 They also have a strong bite force due to their big teeth.

01:46 A hippo's canines are self-sharpening and over a foot long,

01:58 with a pressure of around 450 pounds per square inch

02:02 at each one.

02:03 (dramatic music)

02:06 Nile crocodiles, lions, and spotted hyenas

02:21 are known to prey on young hippos.

02:32 However, due to their aggression and size,

02:35 adult hippos are not usually preyed upon by other animals.

02:39 In fight rhino with hippo, hippo is much more aggressive.

02:52 Rhino has an impressive charge.

03:00 But in close combat, the enormous gape

03:03 of the hippopotamus's mouth probably gives it the advantage

03:06 over the long horn of the rhino.

03:08 Hippos have a lot of ways to protect themselves.

03:16 They run at top speeds of about 30 miles per hour,

03:23 which is surprising despite their size.

03:26 (dramatic music)

03:28 They don't usually flee a war

03:35 because they can take on most predators.

03:55 They use their teeth to pierce the bodies of other animals

03:59 to take advantage of their large size.

04:01 These extremely aggressive animals are unpredictable

04:08 and can attack without warning.

04:10 When hippos and lions fight,

04:20 the hippo generally comes out on top.

04:24 If a pride of lions attacks a single hippo,

04:27 an exception can be made.

04:29 But then, the hippo is much bigger,

04:32 has big teeth to protect itself,

04:35 and can move quickly on land or in water.

04:37 In hippos and crocodiles fight,

04:46 hippos are quite capable of defending themselves

04:49 against crocodiles.

04:53 Even though the crocs have sharp teeth

04:56 and a stronger bite force,

04:57 it's difficult for them to pierce the hippo's tough hide.

05:01 In contrast, the lower canines of the hippo

05:07 can bite right through a crocodile.

05:09 Male Cape buffalo weight is 300 to 900 kilogram.

05:22 Male hippopotamus weight is 1500 to 1800 kilogram.

05:26 However, here is the case we don't see

05:31 hippos and buffaloes fight very often.

05:34 Obviously, because they live in different environments

05:42 but also because the buffalo never challenges hippos.

06:42 Cape buffalo are called black death for a reason.

06:51 They kill about 200 people a year.

06:56 They have killed more game hunters

07:00 than any other animal in Africa.

07:05 But statistically, hippos are much more dangerous

07:09 in that they kill more people than any other animal

07:11 in Africa, including the predators.

07:14 At over double the weight with a short temper,

07:21 the hippo attacking first.

07:22 But these two animals rarely engage in deadly battles.

07:31 (dramatic music)

07:34 In hippos and rhino fight,

07:42 both animals are highly territorial

07:44 but the hippo is much more aggressive.

07:46 When rhinos fight, they normally don't amount

07:53 to more than some horn clashing and a little urine spray.

07:57 (dramatic music)

07:59 You might be surprised,

08:23 but the elephant is likely to win from hippo.

08:26 (elephant trumpeting)

08:29 They are much larger than a hippo

08:37 and can knock the hippo over and stomp it.

08:40 The elephants may also attack en masse to protect their own,

08:54 often encountering a single enraged hippo.

08:57 (elephant trumpeting)

09:00 Hyenas are carnivores.

09:17 (hyena screeching)

09:20 They either hunt on their own or scavenge

09:27 from the kills of other larger animals.

09:30 They typically hunt wildebeests, gazelles and young hippos.

09:38 However, due to their aggression and size,

09:43 adult hippos are not usually preyed upon by hyena.
