Hippo Runs After Lions At Terrifying Speed In Viral Video
In the viral video, three lions were seen lunging into the water. They huddled together as they tried to get back on land. Soon after getting into the water, the three lions were caught glancing towards their right and scramming.
A few seconds later, it was revealed in the clip that the lions got scared after they noticed that a humungous hippo was on its way toward them. As the hippo angrily swam over to the lions, they scrambled back on land to keep themselves safe.
But things did not go as planned for the lions as the hippo lunged forward to attack one of the lions while the other two escaped narrowly. One lion got caught and got stuck for a few moments as the hippo bit the king of the jungle with its strong, big teeth. Though the lion eventually escaped from the hippo's grip and got back onto land.
The Twitter account Wow Terrifying posted the video and wrote, "Terrifying speed! You can see why Hippo's are so dangerous!"

While one noted, ¡°Thing is "The king of the jungle" is the concept derived by humans for animals & not by animals themselves. In the wild everybody lives by the edge of sword. Every predator is being hunted by the bigger one.¡±
