About this episode
This episode explores the deadly confrontation between hippos and lions, two of Africa's most formidable animals.
Can one of the largest cats in the world take on Africa’s deadliest animal? Over 85% of humans that encounter a hippo are likely to die from them; one bite, one charge, or even one step could send you to an early grave. But lions are considered one of the deadliest wild cats in the world, with a bite force that could rip off a man’s leg like it was butter.
