Aunque los hipopótamos se encuentran entre las criaturas más peligrosas de África, un grupo de unas 30 valientes tortugas intentaron convertir un hipopótamo en una gran tumbona. Hasta que el hipopótamo se movió, las tortugas estaban a cargo; luego, perdieron el control y cayeron.
El enorme hipopótamo, que podría haber pesado hasta 2,5 toneladas, fue emboscado por una gran cantidad de tortugas de agua con bisagras considerablemente más pequeñas después de nadar rápidamente en el Parque Nacional Kruger de Sᴏᴜᴛʜ Aғʀɪᴄᴀ.
The marshes and slow-moving rivers of Sᴏᴜᴛʜ Aғʀɪᴄᴀ are home to many water-loving reptiles that prefer floating at the water’s surface or sunning on rock faces. In Kruger National Park, hippos are referred to as “waterway wallowers”. They are typically seen in herds and are regular sights at most watering holes, but they may get confused for gray stones.
When they are simply floating beneath the surface of the water, their snouts frequently even resemble crocodile noses. But take note of the caution: they are in a ᴛʜʀᴇᴀᴛened state if they open widely and reveal their enormous lower canines.
Amphibians include turtles. On land, they move very slowly, but in the water, they swim incredibly well. The turtles enjoy tanning because they undoubtedly deal with a lot of dampness. Instead of going onshore, turtles prefer to ascend above the water to sunbathe.
