- Despite its intimidating appearance, the hippo is one of Africa's most underappreciated creatures in terms of fearlessness and potentially violent disposition. Hippos are one of Africa's largest animals, and they aren't known for being cheerful, and they kill more people each year than lions, leopards, crocodiles, or any other significant predator. If you want to see how hippos’ rule, keep watching as we count down 12 times hippos attacked their enemies.

LIONS
The hippo is another animal that lions rarely attack for obvious reasons. Watch how this hippo hunts down this lion and almost kills it with a single bite in this first clip. I’m sure the lion was injured, but it could have been worse. Hippos, despite their size, move quickly and are difficult to catch, even for a pride of lions. When lions attack baby hippos, they should expect fierce reprisal if the mother is around. During a drought, the scarcity of drinking water isn't the only issue. Another issue is a shortage of rain and water, which makes it difficult for food to be rich in nutrients. As a result, hippos become quite territorial, challenging animals they would ordinarily avoid, such as the lion in this video. This lion is not really looking for trouble, but the hippo wants the lion out of his territory. When the lion has had enough, it actually charges the hippo and the hippo relaxes, realizing, it's not worth the risk, especially when you take into consideration this is a young hippo and the lion would probably have the upper hand in a fight. This huge hippo bull confronts a male lion. They kind of stare at each other, but nothing more. The bull hippo is wondering what to do and the lion will probably react to what the hippo does. Neither one of them look like they’re in a rush until the hippo tries to flank the lion. That’s when the big feline decides to scamper off and position himself so he can see exactly what the hippo is doing. This hippo is forced to find a new bathing pool but must defy this pride of lions to gain access to it. You can see all the bite marks on the hippo’s body as it’s trying to chase the big cats away. The hippo’s hard work pays off and the lion pride decides to hold their picnic elsewhere.
WILD DOGS
Wild dogs don't favor hippos as prey, but they both loathe each other. Hippos and wild dogs are known for chasing each other while attempting to grab impala or other prey, which is why they don't get along. I'm not sure if hippos fear wild dogs, but they sure do find them bothersome. These wild dogs harass this massive hippo in this video. It's not as if the dogs will gain anything from this encounter, other than some entertainment. Because this is such a large and strong hippo, the wild dogs would take an enormous risk trying to take it down, which is unlikely. So, how do the dogs behave? They conclude that they've wasted enough of their time, and this hippo's time as well, and decide to call it a day. These dogs have already chased this young impala into the river. It was swimming wildly from side to side, looking for a way out. The disturbance irritated this massive hippo, who attempted to force the young impala into the water. Meanwhile, an adult impala, possibly the mother of the floundering baby, approached the water's edge. In a couple of seconds, the dogs were on it, but the Hyenas seized their prize and tore into the carcass. After fending off an attack by the increasingly angry hippo, the dogs redirected their focus to the youngster, and one brave dog swam into the dam in an attempt to snatch the impala. At this point, the newborn impala was exhausted and began to sink beneath the surface. All of this was too much for the hippo, who, after scaring the dog away from the kill, slung the carcass back over its shoulder. The dogs were defeated, and all they could do was stand there and watch as the impala plunged to its death at the dam's bottom. Today's meal isn't going to be on the lake for these dogs! This hippo is enraged and moves from side to side in the water keeping its huge mouth open, showing its monstrous fangs to these three wild dogs. The dogs are hesitant, but they know better than to mess around with this maniac! Another colossal hippo is attempting to find some peace and quiet in this watering hole, but guess who shows up to disrupt the fun? A pack of wild dogs, of course, is always on the lookout for an opportunity.
I actually love how Hippos literally exists just to annoy Crocodiles lmao.

In the water or on land you cant escape
Come on with the clip at :17 there is no way a Hippo is running down a Cheetah. That is totally CGI-ed.
Imagine being a deer and being chased by wild dogs, cheetahs, leopards, hyenas, lions and crocs and being killed by hippos just because you annoyed their slumber. Literally your entire existence is a case of who has dibs on your body!
Mother Nature is amazing

You wouldnt expect to live long if you was a deer
Don’t forget Kammodo dragons
That hippo swimming in and out of the water like a dolphin, swimming at the speed of a boat no less, is the scariest thing I seen in the water.
If you don’t know, Hippos are the closest relative to Dolphins and Whales, as some Pakicetus (oldest species) did not constantly depend on the water to get food, evolving into the hippos we know today.
Hippos do not swim.
@@Bigdyl85 They literally run underwater... Hippos are one of the fastest swimmers, it literally goes like a submarine.
@@c_chimba but it is not swimming.
@@Bigdyl85 Because that hippo isn't swimming, doesn't mean all hippos don't swim. Hippos are great swimmers.
FYI, hippos don’t swim. They walk/run on the bottom. They push themselves up with their hind legs to surface.
Yeah they have near to 0 buoyancy coz they are sooo muscular
@@sethrich89 Here we go with the adolescent remarks. Go back to school and get educated. Ignorance isn’t bliss, in your case. Or, you and I can meet, wherever you may be and sort out our differences. I hate ignorance.
@@entertainmentgaming8738 Why are you in this conversation?! And if you haven’t noticed, I’m counter acting on his adolescence. I’m too old to be dealing with more ignorance.
@@entertainmentgaming8738 I suggest you read his comments, then. When you read my one comment and ASSUME that I’m the attacker, without reading his, that’s pretty shallow. I commented, informing him of a fact. There’s nothing wrong in that. But when he fired back with adolescence words, I retaliated (make an attack or assault in return for a similar attack.) Something so petty. And just an fyi, I got the facts from National Geographic, the Animal Channel, Animal Planet, etc. What’s the problem?
@@entertainmentgaming8738 Seth Richardson’s comment? Maybe he deleted?? Idk. Point is, treat those, as you want to be treated. I WILL retaliate when someone treats me with no courtesy or respect, and attacks me first. Im done explaining. I don’t need to validate myself, if only people were to read the whole conversation.
They fascinate me to no end! They're SO violent! And I've watched nature shows and documentaries since forever, and one thing I've always seen time again is their completely obstinate and fearless disposition towards any and all other wild creatures!- they are the rulers of their domain- and remain unmoved in a place that has changed little through out history...incredible and terrifying creatures- the Behemoth-
Well the elephant is the true behemoth, but hippos are boss
A revealing fact is they are the most deadly wild animal for humans , and this is by FAR.
Rhino vs hippo is such an odd battle. Especially when the hippo is just biting the horn 😂
Bruh let's take the time to say these are some fast animals
Terrifyingly. Being that size with that speed is OP lol
@@Thawhid Can't wait for the devs to debuff them
@@raviolithief4009 I don't think they will. They haven't nerfed hippos for centuries so yk. To nerf dinosaurs they basically nuked them out.ets see what happens
Extremely. Absolutely terrifying
When he dragged the lion 😭💀
Damn, that clip where the hippo realizes a trapped antelope is being chased by some wild dogs, so it fucking kills the thing and lets the dogs take it to get some peace and quiet. Holy shit, these guys are hardcore.
The more I learn about hippo, the more I think they could totally carry a horror movie.
Yes they're super super territorial
The hippo didn't kill the antilope, it's still moving as the dogs drag it away from the hippo. You're being bullshitted.
Hippos could take like 6 lions attacking them at once and shake it off then divide them by two.
they are the horror movie HORROR MOVIES IN REAL LIFE
The Hungry Hungry Hippo movie
No way I'm kayaking anywhere near hippos. That's insane.
Playing resident evil is like playing super mario thinking in that situation
I was almost killed by a hippo in a canoe, it’s no joke
Lion: "I'm the king of the jungle."
Hippo: "Then why you running?"
Wild dogs are trolls. Hippos will kill a mofo so others will leave them alone.
That's gangster
Or uncivilized!
I like them even more now.

A lot of people don't realize how dangerous hippos can be and think of them as being something a bit like manatees with feet instead of flippers...fat, passive, placid, slow plant eaters which like to wallow in the water.
They're not.
Hippos become "dangerous" when they feel threatened! Stay away from them and they do the same!
Alot of people don't think hippos are harmless ...
@@geronimo9193 why are more humans killed by hippos then? people think just because they dont hunt like lions they are cow like and docile.
@@deeplaysgaming4754 alot of ppl know hippos r dangerous
@@geronimo9193 theres literally articles online talkin about how people ignore warnings of not tryin to take selfies with hippos, you dont have to tell them not to do that with lions! its literally the reason more people are killed by them!
I always thought hippos were friendly gently fellows as a result of my exhaustive research via Disney cartoons. These dudes make Mike Tyson seem gentle and non threatening.
Oh yeah many cute animals like dolphins and hippos get that misconception.
@@michaelnally2841 dolphins are scarier
Me too😂😂😂 im shook😂😂😂
In my mental therapy, I was asked to choose a container to put traumas in and retrieve later if need be. I choose a HIPPO, because it will crush my trauma memories and so on. My therapist said, "Well this is a first". He said others choose a dumpster or a contain of a thing and not an animal. My Hippo is doing the greatest at crushing my trauma, he gets mad if I try to dig up the old trauma, lol.
I no longer want a hippopotamus for Christmas, lol 😂
🤣😂😂
What?! Lmao 😂 they have 0 empath
Priceless!!!!
Very underrated comment Stef 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Yeah It would probably do more than knock out your two front teeth😆
You know that the elephant is the most badass animal out there since it's not on the list.
And was mentioned in the video just to explain why it's not on the list. It IS BADASS!!
Yup. Even Lions have to be desperate to try and take one down.
@@pnut3844able Lion can't take down Hippo, Rhino and Elephant
@@PrashantMishra-kh1xt yes they can To Rhino or hippo but soo rare but most of the time rhino or hippo always come on top and they only target is the sick weak old Hippo, rhino or Young ones
@@posayclean What? Against a full grown hippo or rhino a pack of lions have absolutely NO CHANCE. If its a sick or young one maybe. But otherwise it has never been recorded unless im wrong.
If crocodiles could talk it would be the funniest and most entertaining interview of the century. 95% of the content would just be complaints that hippo won't let them be a carnivore living in peace
The amount of times he describes the hippo as “calm” when it’s actively being aggressive 😂😂😂
As a crocodile lover I find it hilarious that the Hippos will just screw with them sometimes.
Ye totally 😁🤪
well, you wouldn’t wanna get screwed by hippos. that’s for goddamn sure😂
Hippos needs anger management 😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 good one boi
The elephant, rhino, hippo are the true king of beasts.
I am only guessing a hippo's bite can be more painful than that of a crocodile.
That little hippo was so brave to stand up to a lion! What a lil champion
😃
I’d say a crocodile is worse as the do have more bite force. Not saying it won’t hurt to get bitten by a hippo, you’re definitely fucked if you do.
Maybe a hippo more painful on a bigger surface area like your torso where those 4 giant teeth can also sink into you but smaller parts like an arm or a leg are crocodile for sure with all the teeth.
@@13YoJest13 yeah, we can speculate on it.. I wouldn't take both ! Lol.
@@13YoJest13 No way. Hippo definitely would hurt more imo. Those frigging teeth are brutal and huge. Either way, you're screwed as you said. But I feel the Croc would take your arm off faster while the Hippo you'd feel more and it would annihilate everything it grabbed. Bones, etcy
@@el34glo59 hippo just one bite then you all cracked but crocodile they swirl after they bite so you would lost a limb
@@el34glo59 I guess it depends on how it bite you. They can both rip your arm off if the hippos big teeth land in the middle of your bone to essentially snap it in half.
I guess it depends on if you can handle the feeling of pain that of ripping or crushing give you
Hippos are Literally Walking TANKS.
If that rhino had a horn in the first bit, that hippo would not have been able to get it on its side nearly as easily
I love how they are so aggressive with that super cute tail wag 😂🥰
I relate to this hippo, I just wanna vibe and everyone is so annoying.
11:45 They cut off the horns of Rhinoceros' to keep them from getting poached.. Now they're unable to defend themselves from Hippos..
15:37 But every seems to be in a good mood...Until the hippo go nuts!
That cracked me up
That’s hipo tackling that cheetah was too hollas 🤣🤣🤣
I found it shocking that 2,900 people are killed annually by hippos. That must be MORE than sharks.
Sharks do not kill a lot of people, like way less than 100 per year. Lighting kills way more people. So hippos are crazy dangerous
The most amazing thing to me is how few people can hold a phone steady enough to shoot video.
They are random camera's just placed in there to take a shot on these animals
To a Hippo, Everyone's an Enemy!!!
You know, for a mass of blubbering danger, hippos are actually very pretty animals.
Funnily they’re not blubbery at all, they’re pure muscle..
@@oscarovenden4641 that a fact 👌 👌 👌

Damn they be whoopin all kinds of wild life ass 🤣🤣🤣🤣
bru damn
I guess hippos are the real king of the jungle
Honey badger: think again
no
@@gamerhead473 A hippo would destroy a honey badger. Not saying that a honey badger isn’t terrifying but, they would lose against a hippo.
Many people think "St George versus the dragon" was a man killing a Crocodile. But what if the "dragon" was actually a Hippo?
My theory of why hippos help prey to the crocs is so that more crocs don’t show up. If a croc is able to get a kill at that watering hole it might attract other annoyances for the hippos.
Hippos eat meat
@@geronimo9193 only sometimes, but they usually don't
@@gonxhunter1941 but... They do... It's crazy deer do too alot of herbivores will feed on meat on hard or weird times
Respect for my hippo brothers.
Hippos be trying to chill in the water and they have to choose violence to get some peace... This is another example of a great Hufflepuff
We don't look like a threat, we just want to sleep and eat some cookies, if you take that away from us we will get violent
Hufflepuff gang!!!!
You high or smth?
Deer: Gets stuck in the mud while trying to run for his life.
Hippo: This MF choosed death!
Indeed, hippos value their privacy.
Woaah j'ignorais que les hippopotames se déplaçaient avec une telle vitesse. Ils sont dotés d'une force colossale et me semblent plus agressifs que je le pensais. C'était une très belle et intéressante vidéo avec des scènes d'affrontement fascinantes et incroyables !!!! J'aimerais encore et encore des vidéos comme celle-là 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
I think these are random clips from unrelated encounters pieced together to make each story.
He didn't claim otherwise? They are of course different film clips, as he's giving examples of hippo attacks on other animals.
I always loved the Hippos at the zoo when I was kid had no idea how ferocious these animals are in the wild until I got older
11:56 I saw the original, it was not romance, they actually got into a fight. The Rhino was minding his own business and the hippo took him as a threat, opening his jaw as a threat display. After harassing the rhino for a while the Rhino loses patience and actually attacks the hippo, giving it a good stab in the back with his sharp horn.
the horn is dangerous
But stupid Wildhunters chase those rhinos because of their horn
Lol yeah I think the video was being sarcastic
The "romance" thing was their attempt at a joke.
Overall this video was a disappointment in the way they chop down the videos.
Alex is the king of the jungle until Gloria starts chasing him at full speed.
0:14 caught me off guard 💀😭
0:42 BRO THE EDITING
These beasts are really dangerous.
Better don’t mess around with them!
Great video! Just a correction, there are no deers in África. Some of those are probably female Tragelaphus imberbis.

I love how hippos dive down in the water with their little eyes poking out like a crocodile, it's like we can see you Hippo, you're a Hippo you aren't hiding from anybody 🤣
Such power, amazing creatures
A Zebra is not an enemy! C'mon Mr Hippo it's tough enough for Zebras with Crocs but hey we're vegetarians!
Zebras are bad tempered lol
Hippos will attack anything they see to be a threat to their habitat.
What the fuck 🤣
9:15 fun fact hippos don’t really swim they just run/walk on the bottom of lake or river beds
Yup and push themselves up to push through the water sometimes making over 25 feet from a single push, natures torpedoes
Actually your right, but I've seen a lotta vids, they do kinda swim, using their legs to make some movement in the water, because how do they end up getting up to the surface of the water
When Hippos attack nothing except in the intro. That’s the new title of this video.
Nevermind a guard dog, i'm getring a hippo!
Female hippos can be tamed if adopted baby. You will need a huge river in your garden and a big house. Accorded to a video, they love sweet ice tea^^
So pretty much the hippo hates all life forms and wants to be the center of the world?😂
Hippo’s can also fling their poo at you. That’s badass 💩
Okay but when I fling my poo at people I get called a creep
@@doinksinamish5297 that's just because you are not a hippo lmao
I can do that too :D
They can run that fast despite their size
Not to mention that they could weigh 3 tons
11:29 the rhino’s horn has been poached.. so it can’t defend it self properly 😢
Hippo is an insane animal.
Hippos natures are so calm and chill but when you provoke them they becomes of the the world most dangerous animal.
I have a nature preserve in my back yard and watch animals test each other every day

Nobody talks about the ferocity of the Hippo, always lions bears and tigers. Hippos are alpha or apex predators.
Hippos are herbivores
@@balazsbellak976did you see them eating the meat?😂
Hippos amazing creatures, one of my favorite animals.
*Cheeta* "Shit I got a hippo on my 6!"
*Chetta 2* "Can't you just run??"
*Cheeta* "It's not that easy, Cheeta, it's not that easy...
...Being cheesy *Bu-dum tsh!*
My jaws dropped, I always thought them to be calm
There is a reason why the ancient Egyptians gave their version of Satan (her name was Ammit) the head of a crocodile, the front feet of a leopard, and the back feet of a hippopotamous. Those were the three animals they feared the most.
Because in the past you could only take a picture of the calmed ones. Most of the time they killed you before posting the picture.
love seeing lions getting scared
This is gonna make lions fans so embarrassed
When the Lion King came out Hippos balked in both shock and laughter.
I can’t believe how many wild dogs are in this video considering how rare they are to see by normal people. I spent 14 mos in Africa and saw wild dogs once - right at dusk.
There are no wild dogs in this video at all, only hyena and Jackals
The offensive linemen of the jungle...
Incredible...
More like defensive, swim moves, ripping, tackling, intercepting.
One thing wild krats taught me was don't get between a hippo and the water. I wouldn't wanna be anywhere near a hippo
8:35 Best quote. He doesnt procrastinate.
It is actually rare for Lions to attack a adult hippo
They are one of the most dangerous predators on land or in the water I think! As they're like tanks 😎
Everything is a hippos enemy
Except for horny rhinos sometimes...
If hippos moved as fast as cheetahs I would never be within a 100 mile radius from one.
Hippos are Nature's Eric Cartman.
Hippo: cool older person chilling minding they business
Wild Dogs: young lil punks trying to get a rise an entertainment out em!
Also Hippos: if I kill this deer 4 u will u leave us alone
Wild dogs: hell yeah y'all hippos are actually alright in our book!
Hippos are the old gangsters
Idk man, if you’re kayaking in hippo territory, you’re kinda asking to be eaten
Seems like hippos just want to be left tf alone lol
After watching this video, it seems hippos are the king of jungle. I mean seriously which animal can threaten them!?
Elephant...
I think God's creation is marvelous!
We need to be sick to enjoy those kind of fights and struggle.
The hippo, is the symbolism, of sacred pig.
After the fight with the hippo.lion gave up it's title 'King of the jungle' and now living a retired Life.
Still waiting for when Hippo's attack their enemies!!!
9:50 why you lying? Those people who were attacked actually lost someone in the water and they had to go back for them. You then showed a clip of different people in a different boat and said "fortunately they make it out unscathed"

It's like Hippos are the most powerful beasts but just want to chill and have their peace. When something annoys them they are like "Nah i dont want any of this BS" and just go kill it to go back to chilling.
