Which animal would survive a confrontation between an elephant and a hippopotamus?
Curiouspaul
I think the hippo would kill the bear .. u know what .. hippo is one of the most dangerous animal on the planet ..and its male is intimidating as hell ... as well as very aggressive .....on the other side ..the polar bear is the dominator in his place ... but has never put in a real challenge ... chasing snow foxes .. and confronting weak walruses ..... is nothing compared to hippopotamus exchanging bites against crocs .. as a matter of fact .. the hippo is larger than the bear ...and well armoured. ....if this fight takes place semi shallow water or in dry land ..the bear will circle the hippo and the only chances to win is wearing down the bear by its formidable claws and canines ... but i tell you .. the bear will surely fail ...

∙ 14y agoIt depends on where the confrontation happens. In most cases it would be the elephant but if in water, the chances of a hippo to win is higher. But that is not sure. An elephant is much bigger than a hippo and would easily fend off a hippo.
