Kor37 9 Posted January 21, 2007 Hungry hippo eats zebra January 20, 2007 THIS is the terrifying moment a hippopotamus drags a zebra to its death — the first time an attack has been caught on film. A BBC1 crew captured the incident and recorded the enormous hippo ripping its helpless prey apart with its massive jaws. David Breed, a wildlife guide working with the crew in Kenya, said: “I’ve only seen hippos kill wildebeest at river crossings five times in 20 years. I have heard stories about hippo attacks on zebra, but I’ve never seen one.” The footage will be shown on BBC1 at 7pm tomorrow during the final episode of the series Trek — Spy On The Wildebeest. I had no idea that hippos ate zebras! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
