"I have a relationship with the most dangerous animal in Africa." What a jackass.

Another not so subtle reminder that an animal is an animal, no matter what Disney tells you.

Maybe if he would have named him “Hubert Humphrey” this wouldn’t have happened. the hippo would have been too happy walk over anyone.
sorry, that the dumbest thing I have ever typed on FR.

Even crocs avoid adult hippos. That should tell you something.

It was reported-—after the friend of a woman was mutilated by the woman’s pet gorilla-—that tame young animals mature into viscious dangerous older pets.
They should be placed in a zoo or elsewhere-—not in a home.

“Like a son...”
Apparently the feeling was not mutual.
