Well, it depends. Males fight for dominance and the right to mate. Females get along great. Sometimes when a female brings her baby to her clan, one of the males will kill him so he doesn't have any more competition. So it really just depends

∙ 11y agoYes, they do fight each other. Male Hippo's mostly, for dominance, territory, and mating rights. A female hippo will rarely fight other hippo's, but if another hippo got into it's younglings, it likely would attack.
