“Engaging” in the fierce battle between hippos caused the crocodile to be “disturbed” when he was hit by many quite strong attacks from his opponents.
According to National Geographic, the low river water level has made the hippos extremely uncomfortable. Therefore, many great wars broke out between hippos to compete for territory.
Meanwhile, this unlucky crocodile was so “stupid” that he “got involved” in the middle of a great war between hippos.
That makes it “infected” and becomes a target for adult hippos.
It was even bitten on the neck by a rather large male hippo.
With fangs longer than 30cm and a bite force of about 1.28 million kg/m2, hippo bites are extremely dangerous for any animal.
However, fortunately for this crocodile, the hippo has no intention of killing its opponent. Therefore, it can still escape the “tongue of fear of death”.
However, this will definitely be a “life-long” lesson for this crocodile in “not being responsible and still trying to meddle in other people’s affairs”.
