This is Why Hippos Have the Deadliest Poops in the World

  • Hippos are pretty cute with their rotund bodies, short stubby legs and sly smirks. But if you happen upon one, beware. They're one of the most fearsome animals in the world. Hippos may seem harmless, but they're far from it. In Africa, hippos kill around 500 people a year, making them twice as deadly as lions. They have a bite force of up to 12,600 kPa (1,827 psi). A hippo could sever a person in two as easily as we can snap a chocolate bar.
    So what makes these seemingly gentle giants so deadly? What do they eat?
    And why is their poop so destructive?

    Even Steve Irwin was scared of hippos. There's one video of him, Terri and their crew crossing a river that had a pod of hippos a bit further away from them. After he helped Terri the rest of the way, his voice shaking, he said "That was the scariest 15 minutes of my life!"

      The environment in South America is very welcoming to hippos, they have even taken over local towns in the area in Columbia. There are no predators, they dont move away from cars so calmly walk down streets and highways.
      There is a sterilization programme in place to control the wild population, I think the estimate they have given here on the amount in the wild is far too low.

      No, they are herbivores. Are humans considered cannibals because some minute percentage practice it on rare occasions? And just because most herbivores will eat animal protein on rare occasions doesn't mean they aren't herbivores. Hippos eating meat is considered abnormal behavior, and likely an act of desperation for nutrients during times of scarcity.

    Kilopascals for pressure- there's a unit most listeners cannot relate to.
    Going by the narrator's accent and mention of visiting the Cincinnati Zoo, I'm guessing that the intended audience might be mostly Americans...centimeters and kilograms aren't really how most of us reference distance and weight.
    Why doesn't the hippos mouth open Pi radians? ...if you'd like to promote Si, that is.
    Aside from the units, I always thought force to be more appropriate for bite strength than pressure, which, for a given jaw strength, would vary widely depending on the area considered. Most animals bite strength, measured in PSI or kPA, could exceed their tooth strength, if they bit a ball bearing, or any small hard thing....the force, without considering area, seems more relevant. Pounds, or Newtons, if you insist.

    Okay but question... 60-80 hippos does sound like a lot but it's only gonna be more if they let it go on... And altho I'm sure it would be a tough job and I sure wouldn't wanna do it, doesn't it seem possible enough to round up 60-80 hippos and find zoos all over the South and North Americas that will take them? Better than letting them continue to multiply at least right...

    The dictator Marcos also had an African animal collection in an island in Palawan.
    However, apparently, none survived after his overthrow. The island inhabitants apparently killed and ate them.

    2nd tallest.?
    So they are taller than a giraffe?
    The giraffe and African elephant are the tallest land animals. I doubt they are taller than a bison.
