Hippos take on crocodiles for best sunbathing spot

A bask of crocodiles is no match for this fierce hippo 🦛🐊 #Serengeti #iPlayer

Love and loss, jealousy and rivalry, tragedy and triumph as the lives of the animals entwine and dramatically unfold in the heart of this legendary land.

The camera angle showing the hippopotamus’ snout was cool. Hippos are the only animal that can nip a crocodile and live to tell the tale. 😄

When the baby hippo backed up to the last croc…it was like “bro seriously?? have some respect” but after momma hippo entered the scene it was like “ya all have a nice day”😁

Goes to show how useful a hippos shape is. That sheer mass is a surprisingly good defence on its own. Even more so when attached to an animal with a 2000psi bite force.
