Young Hippo Uses a Full-Grown Crocodile as a Toy

Young hippo harasses this crocodile relentlessly.

In general, messing with a crocodile is a bad idea. You shouldn't try to play with one or harass it. Trust us, there's plenty of internet proof of that. You likely won't get away with it.

Well, that is, unless you're a young hippo. This hippo absolutely terrorizes this crocodile in Zimbabwe's Hwange National Park.

Watch the vide below:

That may be the world's most dangerous plaything!

It's funny how the croc obviously wants no part of this "playtime," but can't do much to stop it either! For good reason, too, the crocodile probably knows how easily the baby or its mother could have killed it with those powerful jaws.

This may be the only baby animal on earth that could possibly get away with this behavior in this situation.

On another note, you shouldn't harass a hippo either. They're one of Africa's most dangerous animals for a very good reason!
