What’s the deadliest animal in Africa? It’s not the lion or the crocodile–it’s the hippopotamus! Hippos have razor-sharp tusks, weigh as much as fifty men and can run 25 miles per hour! Follow these hefty hulks as they glide underwater, play tug-of-war, swat balls of dung at one another and nuzzle their young in the mud.
