What if a hippopotamus swallowed you?!!

The hippo is considered the third largest land mammal on Earth after the elephant and the rhinoceros. Their closest relatives are the whales, from which they branched off about 55 million years ago.

Hippos are semi-aquatic animals that inhabit rivers, lakes, and mangrove swamps in Africa. They spend the day immersed in river mud and emerge at dusk or after sunset to graze the grass. In most cases, they are considered herbivores and can weigh up to 1,500 grams, and it takes a lot of energy to carry all of this. Mass. Therefore, hungry hippos must eat 35 kilograms of food every night. In this story, we will take a look at what would happen if it became their last meal and a hippopotamus swallowed

Hippos are large, noisy, and dangerous. They kill 500 people every year in Africa, and their attacks are ferocious. There is a sure sign that a hippopotamus is about to attack when it appears to be yawning, but there will be little benefit in running, as it can charge its body with a force of up to 19 miles per hour, and if you Do not walk on your feet and instead decide to take a boat. You will have less chance of survival, as they often slide under a small boat, flip over and throw its occupants into the water. Although hippos are very large animals, they will not be able to swallow you whole. It would take a lot of biting and chewing. And it will be incredibly painful for you. They have three stomach chambers and they use a method of digestion called foregut fermentation. First, parts of your body move through the hippo's throat to the first chamber of the stomach, where bacteria begin to break down this part of the body. Then they will move to the hippo's true stomach, where Digestive enzymes continue to break it down, and later the animal will open its intestines with the remains of part of your body and some grass, and it will be thrown onto its territory. Male hippos can become aggressive if they sense danger, and they may attack mothers to protect their young. Almost all hippos become nervous when something or someone stops. Between them and the water they live in, they will attack immediately and without warning if they feel that any of them is under threat. The hippopotamus is among the most dangerous animals in the world due to its extremely aggressive and unpredictable nature. The hippopotamus is able to open its mouth at an angle of approximately 120 degrees and squeeze with force. 10 times the strength of a human jaw. The hippo's teeth sharpen themselves as they grind together. The canines and lower incisors grow constantly, with the incisors reaching 40 cm and the canines reaching 50 cm. Since they are herbivores, their diet in nature consists almost entirely of grass, but if they sense the presence of... They hesitate to sink their huge teeth into humans, although they cannot buy a whole human. It would not take much to tear off and eat parts of your body. Little, little. Two incidents have been reported regarding hippo attacks on humans. Perhaps the first is the most famous in Zimbabwe, and it is a story. Paul Templer, the man who was swallowed by a hippopotamus while leading a group of tourists in a kayak. Templer had been working this particular stretch of river for many years. The hippopotamus had occasionally carried out cold-blooded attacks in the past, but this time was different as they were paddling in front of a group of... Hippopotamus One of Templar's colleagues fell out of his boat. Templar noticed what was happening and tried to go to his colleague's aid, but within minutes he found himself starting from the waist up in the hippo's mouth. As he struggled to escape, the hippopotamus writhed like a whirlpool and then threw him out of his mouth. Templar and his friend were swimming to save their lives, but unfortunately there was no chance with the hippopotamus, as the second time the animal swallowed Templar's feet first and submerged his head under the water, and for the second time he threw him out of his mouth to return and try again to escape with his life. In the third attack, the animal grabbed him with a jaw and sank its teeth into his lungs. Amazingly, but Templar eventually managed to survive and emerged with an exposed lung and 38 organic wounds, which led to the amputation of one of his arms. Unfortunately, Templar's colleague lost his life in the end. Then there is a strange case of Mario Sless, a farmer from South Africa, who was brutally killed by his pet hippopotamus. In 2011, Al had raised a hippopotamus himself since he was five years old. He named it Humphreys. The river crossed the river as if it were on a bull. He was feeding it apples and swimming with it. One Saturday evening, Al was found on his farm, where he was bitten several times. By Humphreys, he was held underwater for an unknown period of time and was pronounced dead at the scene. He was previously quoted as saying, "I trust no one, ever, in Humphreys." We believe that the moral of the story is that if you decide to invade Hippo territory, be prepared for the consequences and you can be sure that it will be a Hippo's. The river is always the animal that has the upper hand, and if you think that the hippo can become an ideal pet, think again.
