uh oh, Hippos do eat meat. However, a 2015 study by the Mammal Review shows hippos “occasionally” feed on animal carcasses, a more omnivorous behavior. Hippos are known to attack and eat animals like wildebeests, zebras and kudus, as well as other hippos in cases of cannibalism, according to AZ Animals.Sep 27, 2022
One of the animals Steve feared the most were hippos. If the dude who was comfortable wrestling full grown Crocs and gators feared hippos, then you can bet I'm not nearing one either
Well, crocs and gators, whilst large and dangerous, are very predictable animals. Their master plan for survival hasn't changed much in the last few hundreds of million years, so once you learn how they roll, they're unlikely to surprise you. Hippos by comparison are a lot more active and intelligent, not to mention a lot faster and stronger, which makes them a lot more dangerous to interact with.
Crocodiles because of the way nature designed them are easier to subdue than a hippo. Can't see even the strongest human "wrestling" a full-grown hippo. 😂
@@darthplagueis13also its important to note that a crocodile bite, while painful and surely not pretty, is something most people survive. A hippo on the other hand will literally just oneshot you without any possible counterplay. If it snaps, your chance of survival is extremely close to zero.
I got to say the first time I saw a video of a Jaguar best thing I came in it was that video you filmed @@ForrestGalantebut as you said you don't know if it actually did The killing I have since seen multiple videos of Jaguar jumping on a caiman usually the cat is on a cliff and jumps into the water to grab it and pulls it out by the head but I saw another video where the caiman was out sunning itself and the Jaguar was in the water and just popped up behind it and grabbed it by the head
I saw a picture of a Shoebill Stork for the first time, when I was 5 years old. Thats 40 years ago and my fascination has never faded. Yet to see one in real life though. Great video btw...
I feel like it bears mentioning that hippos, like many other herbivores, aren't exactly picky eaters and won't shun a bite of free protein when it comes their way. Some people like to think that being a herbivore means the animal is basically acting like a vegan, but in truth, these things are more about how an animal mostly acts and what it is adapted for, not absolute describtions of their behavior and diet. And hippos especially do sometimes just prey on things, to the point where there's some discussion about if they shouldn't be considered omnivores instead.
White-tailed deer eat eggs in ground nests, baby birds in the same nests, and fish that wash up dead from bodies of water. Many people have witnessed it.
that goes for so many "herbivores". cows do eat frogs and ground breeders and insects all the times. but a hippo is even more special. there are reports in some regions of africa where hippos literally killed cows on purpose and ate them
I feel like there's subcategories: Sport, Opportunity, and Deficiency and probably a few other gradients. I go get annoyed at the simplification. It's like a toddler/young child learned what they meant in a simplified manner and collectively people decided we didn't need to learn more.
Please do more videos like this! It's cool to get the lowdown on what is actually happening in the short videos. I love your content and joined your Wild Times Podcast❤
Hey Forrest, I've recently been discovering all about the tales of birds going 'extinct' in New Zealand, but there are still movements to find and protect them. I would love a video of you trying to find these lost birds. It's truly horrible that species can be forced to the brink of extinction because of us humans. Rhys Buckingham is one man I have watched trying extremely hard to hear or see a South Island Kokako, and I'm sure many others are trying to rediscover lost birds in New Zealand that could help you and your team. I love that you're trying to rediscover these lost animals, as it brings back hope that these species may still exist. Great video as well, you know your stuff. Cheers from Aus!
- I've *always* wanted to see a massive shoebill stork in person ! Take me with you guys! I can fit in a suitcase 😂. Also, please make these videos again but *maybe like 30 minutes!* Thanks to you && your team ! Good work my friends 👏🏽!!
when i was younger, i thought elephants and rhinos were roughly the same size, because i had never seen them next to eachother, i was amazed at how much smaller the rhino is
Hey Forrest!! I have had a passion for wildlife and plants since I was a kid. I want so badly to be in the world of wildlife conservation for a career, but have no idea where to start! Your videos and so many other content creators like you are so inspiring and just give such a huge boost to raising awareness and understanding endangered wildlife in a way that I’ve never seen before! I especially love marine wildlife. If you’re ever looking for an apprentice, I’m your man! Love what you do brother, keep being the coolest dude alive!!
I don't like TikTok, but watching you react to these videos is actually entertaining and educational. I hope you can do more TikTok reaction videos in the future.
Humpbacks are my all time favorite animals. I literally squeeled😂 im from Juneau, Alaska, so humpbacks breeching, is my favorite thing to see. So cool!
Awesome video! Its really cool how you share all of that knowledge with us all!! Much appreciated Forrest! Keep em' coming my guy. Thanks! Stay safe out there please
So refreshing to come across this video. A real person, not an IA voice. I've su subscribed. Looking forward to seeing more of your videos. And please do more like this
absolutely love your knowledge of animals, it's taught me so much! you have also inspired me to start learning to scuba dive soon and get out amongst the marine life!
I'm so glad I found this channel. I've seen Forrest on Rogan - I don't know how I didn't realize there was a TH-cam channel. I love the way you're explaining the behavior of the animals. It's really important for people to learn the reasons why animals do what they do. The more people know the less sad outcomes there are.😊
This was an awesome video. You watching these videos gives you the chance to use your knowledge to talk about a wide variety of animals. And we love hearing you talk about animals!
11:00 when ur explaining that the hippo is very territorial and a herbivore, it reminds me of a hadrosaur from the prehistoric world, like the edmontosaurus or even a miasaura.
I do wish we could have zoos and aquariums that are more beneficial than the ones we have now. There is always something people get hissy about and its sad as the purpose is to protect the creatures while also educating people
Forrest, one of the top biologists around with an special emphasis in marine biology: "Very good snoodle-boop on that lemon shark" - that's the kind of love for wildlife that can't be faked
I’ve seen videos and experts talk about hippos actually being omnivorous. There’s video of one chasing a croc off a gazelle that it was trying to eat only to then consume the gazelle itself. And not just hippos but other animals labeled as herbivores are omnivores as well. Deer for one example, what it comes down to is opportunity.
the term you're looking for is "facultative", if herbivore is 0. and carnivore is 100, with omnivore being 50, facultatives are the in betweens. A facultative herbivore is willing to eat meat, but doesn't hunt. Things like deer, giraffes, horses and cows, goats. These are Facultative herbivores. Hippos, like i commented elsewhere, are Facultative Herbivores with an argument to be made that they're just omnivores. Also, damn well know you watched that Casual Geographic video, didn't you?
Forest thank you so much for what you do for animals god bless you and your family for all the sacrifices you’ve made and the kindness you’ve shown to our companions of this planet
i've seen a couple of ladybugs hatch this week... also i have video footage of a hedgehog mother eating sunflower seeds, later showing her little baby spikeballs to eat them as well, eventhough wikipedia says that they don't eat plant parts... i love nature man
I laughed so much at you saying you were squealing with excitement and I’m picturing you trying to get your camera and then just saying sod it and using your wife’s. I bet she had a happy laugh at seeing you so excited ☺️.
This is great & I hope you do a lot more of these. The confidence & attitude in those little turtles is hilarious. The honey badgers of turtles lol Shoebill storks are some of the most badass birds. It's beyond impressive how capable & agile hippos are in water. They literally run underwater in a way. Then add in their crazy territorial/defensive behavior & you got yourself a recipe for one insane creature. *I've always joked around saying how I would love to see us one day somehow make a machine that allows us to see thru different animals eyes. It wouldn't be complete until we can get a sense of what and how these creatures brains and bodies sense their surroundings tho. It's obviously a completely sci-fi idea but it's just coming from a place of pure curiosity.
I wish we could've gotten a better look at that turtle tbh! But goddamn, he musked, peed AND pooped on you? He woke up and chose violence that day haha
Loved this video! Technically these aren't even reaction videos these are informative and that's just Great! & Would also love to see a series on animals with different vision sight
I work at a summer camp where all the kids eat snack and lunch outside. Boy oh boy those birds are very quick with picking up the crumbs lol! This gorgeous murder of crows though always comes once everyone leaves and they eat the leftovers while just watching me clean stuff up it’s very funny.
I’ve never heard a wildlife professional accuse an animal of acting “like a doofus”. It gave me a chuckle. The shark might have just had its mouth open to take in water for O2.
Laikipia Wilderness is a good spot to see a melanistic leopard as well. One has set up their territory around the camp. Spotted her hunting back in April.
I've never seen an Orca in captivity because my family never went to places like Sea World (we went to a local aquarium every summer when I was a kid, but it didn't have large animals like the larger sharks, Orcas, other dolphins, etc.). This summer, I finally got to see Orcas. In the wild. We were in Juneau on a whale watching tour. We saw a humpback whale, and that was cool. The guide kept talking about humpbacks because she said only 1 in 10 trips of whale watching there would see Orcas. Suddenly, a male Orca and a baby Orca appeared. She thought that was awesome because one of the other guides had bragged that they saw one Orca that day. Well, we ended up seeing more Orcas, then more, then more. We got stuck in a pod of 12 wild Orcas including seeing the matriarch and that one baby. The baby was having a blast. He or she would do rolls and all that. US law had it to where we couldn't really move since we had to have the motor off because we were so close. There were 4 other whale watching boats that got stuck because the Orcas were going at a leisurely pace and kept approaching the boats, especially the biggest one (ours was smaller so we were closer to the water). The boat driver said Orcas love the boats, especially the rudders. They find them amusing. They finally swam away, and we didn't get to see any more humpbacks (we did see Dall's porpoises too though). That's okay because the Orcas were really cool.
Forrest! Have you seen how scientists have found that they can attract coral polyps to dead reefs by playing sounds of a healthy one on speakers? "Animal fun facts" with things like this would be a great video idea! I dont think many people even know coral polyps can move!
Would you like to see more tiktok and video reviews?

It was their land first, I wouldn’t call it escaping, I’d just call it reclaiming
