Do you know that the "yawn" of a hippo is an aggressive dominance gesture?

Bull hippos intimidate rivals with their impressive ivories!

The texture of these teeth is similar to that of the tusks of elephants, which means that they also consist of ivory and can grow up to 30 cms.

George Washington's false teeth were made of ivory of hippos.

A hippo cannot jump, but it can easily outrun humans and on average run at a speed of 30 km/h.

It is ranked among the most aggressive species in the world, as it has killed more humans than any other animal.

Far away from everything, at the extreme west of Tanzania, Katavi National Park is home to a large and impressive population of hippos.

They gather in water ponds shrinking more and more as the dry season progresses, thereby creating more and more tensions between the bulls.

Mbali Mbali Katavi, located on the edge of the Chada plain, is a pleasant camp of about ten tents offering game drives by day but also by night.

Do you feel like escaping in these odd times? Why not plan a timeless safari...

We are still here, looking forward to the pleasure of hearing from you.
