Don’t tell large vegetarians what they can and cannot eat. :person_shrugging:

Well, that hippo’s diet appears to be herbivores; so, I guess that counts.

Hippos kill more people in Africa than any other animal, unless you want to count mosquitos.

Don’t even repair the door. It makes an excellent reference point for safety lectures.

The hippo appears to have a visibly bloodied side of its mouth on retreat, which would make sense given the state of the car door (and the car trying to move while the hippo had it in its mouth). Hopefully it wasn’t too hurt. There’s nothing worse than the feeling of cutting your mouth on the jagged metal of a car door after you bite into it.

ANGRY ANGRY HIPPO, the sequel game to “Hungry Hungry Hippos” that no one wanted. Another Kwality Hasbro product coming this year for Christmas! /sarcasm

And you want THAT for Christmas???.

Nah - that’ll buff right out.

Mind you it is a Land Cruiser - they are built like tanks and sometimes look better with their scars.

Just wondering if my auto insurance will cover damage from a hippo bite?

That and the view is what paparazzi experience. Good.
