Hippopotamuses are the most dangerous animals in the land and in the world
They are so fast in the land and in water. You need an elephant gun if you want to kill them. Heard they are having a problem in Pablo Escobar's country because the Hippos escaped from the sanctuary that he build when he was still alive.

These mofos can only be killed via Elephant Gun

Their primary diet is grass.
But they are awesome animals, that much is true.
Nature ftw :rockon:

OP has a lot of experience with hippos?

A polar bear would kill it. Good swipe to the leg and it's lunch.

The polar bear would probably run. It has no natural predators or dangerous prey that fights back outside the water. It wouldn't know what to do with another dangerous animal on land. Which is why they get bullied by grizzlies when the 2 encounter each other. Lions jump on a hippo's back and tear a hole at the spine, then come back days later when the wound gets infected and the hippo is weak. They only do this when they are extremely hungry though as the reward normally isn't worth the risk in attacking a hippo which can kill them in one bite.
Re: Hippopotamuses are the most dangerous animals in the land and in the world
Lions and tigers would take out a hippo like the previous poster said. Gorillas, chimps and even orangutans could take a hippo out if they are smart. If they get on it's back so the hippo can't really fight back, they could take it. Maybe a giant anaconda or python?
Do snakes have enough/strong enough venom to take out a hippo? Even if it's not enough to kill it, doesn't some of that shit eat away at the area bitten?
There are some giant ass eagles that could mess up a hippo so long as they are fighting while airborne.
Re: Hippopotamuses are the most dangerous animals in the land and in the world
Holy shit both posters above are dumb af. An average Lion stands no chance against a Hippo. Hippo skin is too thick to get damaged by lions. :lol
Only two land animals that can beat Hippo 1v1 are Elephants and rhinos.

Yep but if it were to fight it would win. Grizzlies decapitate moose with one swipe and the much larger polar bear would paralyse a hippo

It's not really a fight because there is obviously something wrong with it, but they seem to have no problem damaging the skin as they eat the hippo and its baby

Grizzlies average about 700 pounds. Polar Bears and Moose are about 1,000.
Hippos are 3,500.

That's because they have all the time in the world to sit there and gnaw on the same area, as there's three of them and the hippo is too ill to defend itself.
One lion generally won't be able to damage/subdue a healthy full grown hippo that is attempting to fight back. There may be some isolated cases, but as a general rule... they won't even try.

lmao some pp really think lions stand a chance against hippos.
elephants are the real king in the wild, then hippos, then rhinos.
