That hippo shook that lion like a rag doll.

Curiosity (looked like a young lone female lioness sniffing to see if the reclined hippo was alive or not) sure almost killed that cat.

Even crocodiles don’t mess with hippos.

That must be one hungry lion. I’ve heard that Hippos are by far some of the most dangerous animals in Africa, surpassing even Rhinos.

There is video on YouTube showing lions winning against a hippo.

It doesn’t look like the lion was “hunting”. It looks like it thinks that the hippo is an easy “dead meal”, and when she recognizes that the hippo is alive, she turns away, but it’s too late and the hippo wants to make sure the lion gets the message to not do it again.

I doubt that. Lions are hard-wired to attack any potential prey they think they can get the better of. That lion was not in attack mode, and it certainly would attack a hippo as part of a coordinated pride attack. It would just be very careful about how it did so.

Looks like the press messing with Donald Trump.

Not a good idea.
