Maybe the occasional lion, but the chances are so darn slim, that probably a hippo is rarely eaten by anything. They are way to big, there skin is super thick and tough, and they have teeth that can grow up to ONE METER! It isn't impossible for a lion to snag a baby hippo or something, but hippos kill more lions than they kill them.

Hippos are herbivores, and they eat grass. However, they are still powerful and aggressive. They kill more humans than any other mammal in Africa, and they sometimes even kill predators such as crocodiles, too.

Crocodile v Hippo?

A male hippo versus a male croc, gotta go with the hippo. They have been seen killing crocs. crocs rule.i have seen hippos cant stand a chance against saltwater crocodile nor nile crocodile. you seem to notice that crocs are eaten by anacondas.but crocs which are eaten are caimans. anaconda cant eat big huge crocs. The two normally avoid each other, but adult hippos, especially males, will drive crocs away from the area if the croc appears to become aggressive. Male hippos do kill crocs.
