Fuck yeah!! GO hippo. Best video i have seen in a while, very touching. Would have loved to have seen the hippo go back in and belt that croc for killing that poor little impala, but i guess that how nature works.. the crocs need to eat as well.
I believe the hippo recognized the impala as being young. It's not uncommon for animals to take of young animals of different species. Check out the leopard and the monkey.
That is the most beautiful thing I have ever seen. One of the first videos to reveal the true nature of animals. They're not wild beasts, they're just like us but different physically. We're animals too, just ones that are slightly more "intelligent". Who needs intelligence when we can all do that?
And it could of been saved if only the Hippo would of gone to her C.P.R. class like she planed on....Lets hope she dosent get the lifegard job she applide for!
I wouldn't think the hippos mentality is such that it was 'Breathing Life back into the animal'. Their are many other possible things the Hippo was doing... although they may not be as 'Disney' like to the viewers...makes a good story though doesn't it.
So genius what are the many possibilities? and it's only sick minded negative humans that have the capability to kill and torture for pleasure or sport.
lol i guess you're right, it was an altruistic hippo. shortly after filming the hippo sat in a corner and cried itself to sleep. The pain was so unbearable that he couldn't bring himself to eat. That's when a female lion came along and breastfed it back to health. They became best friends and best friends and release a series of self-help books. A Disney movie is in the works.
The inter-communications between other species will always be underestimated on a public level. It would mean the general acceptance of ideas that are historically associated as "mythical".
Humans can't be empathic what the hell are you talking about!?
That we aren't generally as concerned about others as we are of ourselves is tragic but logical. Selflessness is self sacrificing which is to the benefit of another over oneself. To benefit another above oneself is not evolutionarily strategic at the micro level. On the macro level though, if you view a species collectively it might be of utmost importance.
But hey, we'll probably annihilate ourselves before we notice it.
true, we humans are the most destructive life form on this planet, we kill useful things, for something thats not useful, and were loosing hope to save this planet
How amazing nature can be... we are about to loose all of this magical moments, stop hunting, stop global warming, stop all the shits we've been doing to kill every form of life in this awesome planet..
I don't mean to change the subject, but based on the idiotic, insane comments that clearly lacks common sense and shows just how ignorant some people really are, it's no wonder George Bush had so much support for invading Iraq.
You guys are seriously retarded if you think rantanen was being serious. Hes clearly trolling. No wonder he had so much support for invading iraq, everyones gullible.
i want u all to know that i was there when it happened. And i know that hippo. The hippo is my good friend Jessica the Hippo. Go search for her on youtube. its my friend JESSICA THE HIPPO!
man this video is crazy .. it really maks you think u know? why would the hippo do that? its like they knew each other in a previous life ... its so sad
Bah, what racial prejudice. Just wait till that video is put up which shows a butterfly saving a mosquito from a spiderwebb at the cost of its own life. Then you'll be eating those words up with tears in your eyes.
hippos arent herbivores its been proven they will eat meat if neccesary anyways i thought that was pretty amazing shame the hippo didnt bite the croc in half after tho
Go to 0:48 as the hippo rips the babies leg off... 1:23 the baby looses head.
There is Inter-species sympathy, but the male hippo is the most dangerous animal you will find.. It goes out of it's way to kill and not for food. Kinda like people.
dude crocs dont eat hippos because they're scared shitless of them. In countries like Africa Hippos are the most dangerous animal they're responsible for more deaths to people than crocs, lions or wild dogs.
I think it was the african elephant that performs mercy killings if there is a dying animal nearby its path. maybe the hippo was tryin to save it but in the end did the same? it seemed as if its head was raised before it put its head in its mouth? who knows, animals are trippy..
The hippo is a direct descendent to the croc and they get along in the water. The hippo and croc are often seen just feet from eachother and the crocs never attack unless it is an extremely small baby hippo.
ok,it seems like the hippos teeth woul have bitten the deres neck making it bleed more and the deres mouth wasnot open therefore it could not revive it
That poor impala. That hippo is so sweet. He looked so sad after he realized that the impala was dead. I almost cried. That was astounding and yet so sad.
