Angry elephant bull chases hippo out of water
The video shows an elephant bull, aggressively chasing a hippo out of its watering hole.
Elephants and hippos are two of the biggest and most dangerous mammals found in the African wild. A large elephant bull can weigh up to five tons while an adult male hippo can reach almost three tons in weight. Elephants can be very temperamental and are known sometimes for pushing over safari vehicles when angry, making them very dangerous. Hippos on the other hand kill more people in Africa than any other animal while living in the waterways and rivers across the continent that are shared by humans as well. While both species are known for their dangerous behavior towards humans, seeing the two species coming face to face in an altercation is a rarity. The video shows how an elephant bull, standing inside a watering hole became aware of the presence of a hippo. The elephant did not look happy. Elephants are known for not liking to share any water with any other animals while drinking and swimming. On the other hand, the hippo lives in the water and was there long before the elephant bull. The elephant bull clearly did not care if the hippo lived in the water, he wanted it all for himself and the hippo had to go. The elephant bull charged towards the unsuspecting hippo a few times, splashing the water with his trunk, and letting out a scream with deep rumbling noises. The angry elephant even threw his trunk onto the back of the hippo as if he was helping it along to get out the water quicker. Such interaction between the two species, with the elephant even touching the hippo, is incredibly rare to see. Finally, the hippo who is the one that lives in the water decided to rather be safe and get out and move into the bush until the elephants eventually leave. Incredible to see such a rare altercation between two of Africa’s largest and most dangerous animals.
