WATCH – Hippo VS Shark Footage Captured In KZN
16 Oct 2015 by Sloane Hunter in Animals, Environment, Video
Hippos are notorious for their aggression, protecting themselves and their pod against all kinds of dangers, from elephants to crocs.
A small bull shark was filmed swimming daringly close to a pod of hippos in the iSimangaliso Wetland Park in KwaZulu-Natal. Unlike any other sharks, bull sharks – or Zambezi sharks – are unique in their ability to live in both fresh and salt water and the estuary is a common place for females to have their babies.
Due to the hippo defecating in the water there are generally a lot of fish between the hippos, so it would be the best place for the shark to be looking for a snack. The water was very muddy and the shark started bumping into the hippo, which caused them to start attacking the shark.
That shark has got some balls.
