Uhhh how the hell did you not know how dangerous Hippos are? They kill plenty of people every year. They’re aggressive, fast and huge. They kill tons of crocodiles in Africa every year too. Keep your distance if you have any brains at all.

He was smart enough to acquire the money for a 10 day safari in Zambia.

How does he not know about the dangers of hippos? Or her either?

But it does remind me of the punch line to an old, old joke: “How does you order up a hurricane?”

(Likely butchered the joke)

I don’t think Hippos mess with Rhinos much though. At least a Rhino with a good horn. Without a horn, the Rhino really doesn’t have much though. With the horn...look out. Even Lions run.

“ Uhhh how the hell did you not know how dangerous Hippos are? ”

Hippos are presented as cute and cuddly happy creatures in American children’s stories, cartoons, etc. I don’t know, but this couple could be completely ignorant while feeling fully informed, thanks to despicable American media and education.

When you live in a densely packed urban area, and your only exposure to African wildlife is watching Disney's The Lion King 47 times with the grandkids...
