The hippopotamus looks peaceful and sluggish, but in fact can be very dangerous. They kill about 100 people on average a year, more than all African animals combined. Most victims tried to get too close to a baby hippopotamus, making its mother feel threatened. The best thing to do is to watch this animal from a safe distance. The closer you get, the closer you are to death.
