Hippos are not usually killed by any animal other than another hippo, and in those cases the other hippo doesn't eat the one it killed since hippos are herbivores. But in the rare cases when hippos are killed they are either killed by us humans, or large predators like lions. However, the lions must work together, for taking down a hippo is quite a daunting task. sometimes in an act of defense the hippo will kill one or two of the lions.
