How many people do hippos kill every year?

Answer 1

the hippo is one of the most dangerous animals in the modern world . Each day on average thirty-three deaths occur due to the sudden reactions of a hippos short temper. All of these deaths are mostly caused in the African region.

Answer 2

there are 3 people killed on average by hippos in a year
there are 33 death a day on average so there is about 12045deaths a year this fact might not be true but i am sure that it is.
just about 200 and a bit more

because hipos kill more humans than alligaters,elephatnts and lions put together!

thats why if u are going for a ride i a boat and u see a hippo turn around because if it charges at the boat it will easyily tip the boat over

SO BE CAREFULL!!

hope this is hopfull love ashante zanders :]

Answer 3

Hippos

kill many more people simply because there are many more close encounters between

humans

and Hippos than humans and

Sharks

. Hippos are NOT slow in water. They aren't that aggressive, but they are VERY defensive of their territory.

EDIT: Why do arrogant humans accuse animals of being aggressive when they defend their homes, but the same humans are being "defensive" when they chase down and preemptively kill animals that have done nothing.

EDIT 2: sorry I don't have any stats on Hippos but in 2005, 6, and 8 sharks killed 4 people, and in 2007 only 1, while humans killed over 100,000,000 sharks each year.

Answer 4

"Trust me on this one, hippos don't eat people. I studied hippos for a month and no they do not eat people" They probably don't, but that wasn't the question. They wanted to know how many people are killed by hippos.
