Hipos are very large and dangerous animals. They live near rivers and are in the water most of the time. they can tip canoes and boats over trying to defend their territory. A hipo bite has left many people in Africa without an arm or leg.

Hippos are stronger than lions. Hippos are much bigger than a lion, and because of that are capable of fighting with other hippos, crushing boats with their jaws, among other things with no problem.

Male hippos are the strongest hippos, weighing up to 4.5 tons (9000 lbs) for old adults. One powerful bite from their large jaws produces about 2000 psi to 2500 psi of pressure, and is strong enough to bite a large nile crocodile in half!

Yes, they're very powerful animals. Their jaws are a force to be reckoned with, and something to not be taken lightly, since they are the most dangerous animal in all of Africa.

Yes. One male hippo even has the strength to crush an elephant to death with its massive jaws, size, and weight.
