HIPPOS



You may survive a buffalo's gore, a leopard's maul, an elephant's trashing or a croc or lion's bite but this is the one bite I know of no man that has survived it, once bitten and crushed by it. At 2000 lbs per square inch it is also the strongest bite of any animal on the planet. He can open his giant mouth 180° and crush with his two main tusks measuring around half a meter length each. But as you can see they are not the only ones. Males weigh between 1½ - 2 tons and can run and charge on land at a surprising 30 km/hr.
