It was considered a female deity of pregnancy in ancient Egypt, but in modern times has been wiped out of that country because of the damage it inflicts on crops. The hippo continues to thrive in other parts of Africa. The hippo's proportions reflect its sedentary, amphibious existence. Its plump and bulky body is set on short, stumpy legs, with each foot having four toes. Although webbed, the toes splay enough to distribute the weight evenly over each toe and therefore adequately support the hippo on land.

The Hippopotamus: Gentle Giant or Vicious Brute? Return to Hippos in the Wild Return to Hippo World - Table of Contents Introduction A lmost every informational account of the hippopotamus makes some mention of the animal's violent temper. Various writers have described the hippo as "ill-tempered," "dangerous to man," and "wantonly malicious." But is this reputation deserved? There is no doubt that the hippopotamus is capable of serious damage and violence. Hippos will stand up to lions and have been known to bite full-grown crocodiles in half. Countless African natives have lost their lives when the boats they were traveling in were attacked by hippos. By some accounts, hippos cause more human deaths than any other wild creature in Africa, including lions and elephants. But the question remains: Is the hippo violent by nature or merely territorial? Dominant male hippos will defend their territories fiercely, and female hippos will attack any creature that threatens their young. In this regard, however, are they behaving any differently than numerous other wild species? Below is a list of quotes from various authors which address the issue of the hippo's innate temperament. I will allow you to draw your own conclusions.

HOME CONTACT US LINK TO US NEWS LETTER ... Wildlife Posters Hippopotamus Photo by Hans Schoelink Description and Characteristics: There are two species of hippopotamuses; the Pygmy Hippo which is the smaller species, standing about waist-high to an adult human, and the river or common hippopotamus. The common/river hippopotamus which is world's third largest and heaviest land animals, weighing up to about 4,000 kg. Both species of hippos have barrel-shaped bodies, short stocky legs, and smooth almost hairless skin. Their heads appear outsized with unusually broad mouths and their facial features resemble those of a pig. Hippos have a short, tufted tail Hippos have thin skin that dies out quickly - they secrete a pinkish coloured oil that helps them keep their skin moist in the hot African climate. Hippos spend most of their days in the water or wallowing in the mud, generally coming up on land to feed at night. River hippos are one of the most feared animals in southern Africa. It is claimed that every year more people are killed by them than by any other African animal

By Stephen Mills Images: Staffan Widstrand and Stephen Mills Page 1 Page 2 Woken by a kingfisher I woke up with a thwack. In the first light, through the mesh of my tent, I saw an enormous kingfisher sitting on a bare branch above the river about 10 feet away. In his beak he held a large, round fish. Thwack. He bashed it against the branch and stretched up to swallow. Another thwack, another stretch, still no progress. The fish had clearly lost interest but could do nothing about its shape. The kingfisher disagreed. Thwack. I was in the Selous, in southern Tanzania, one of Africa's largest but least known game reserves. The Selous is one of the last strongholds of the African wild dog, and to find and see them here was the main challenge I'd set myself. Taking on hippos and crocs On my first morning, I set off downstream with a guide and boatman. The river was low, and we had to twist and turn to find a channel deep enough for the boat, which meant we had to intrude on the hippos. And hippos don't like boats. Or perhaps they do. Perhaps they like seeing the look of terror on people's faces when they rear up and charge through the water at them, mouths wide open. And nowhere have I seen so many crocodiles, many of them bigger than the boat, some of them bumping into it.
