Yawn--time for a nap---fave and voted
Tony Beck replied:
Thanks for the vote and fav Nava Jo. But, this hippo wasn't yawning. It gave us a focused and aggressive display telling us to keep our distance (which we did).

Awesome Tony!!!!!! From what I understand they are on top of the list as being one of the most dangerous mammals!!! Would love to see one in its own habitat one day!!!! :)
Tony Beck replied:
Yes Fraida... Statistics dictate that they are responsible for more human casualties than any other African animal. However, their danger is over exaggerated. Like all forms of wildlife, we need to interact cautiously, carefully, yet always treat them with respect and sensitivity. There is no room for fear.
