1. A brief introduction to hippo.

Hippopotamus is a large herbivorous mammal that mainly lives in rivers and lakes in Africa. They are huge in size, and adult hippos can weigh up to several tons. Although they look docile, they are actually very dangerous, especially when protecting their territory. Hippos spend most of their time in the water, relying on water to maintain body temperature and protect their skin. They mainly feed on grass and consume a lot of plants every day. Although their movements appear slow, they can move quickly in the water.

2. Are hippos friendly to humans?

Hippopotamus are not friendly to humans, but are considered very dangerous animals. Although they usually look slow and gentle, they are actually very territorial and aggressive. If humans approach their territory, especially in the water or near their cubs, hippos often see this as a threat and quickly attack. Hippos are huge in size and have an amazing bite force, and can easily capsize a boat or cause serious harm to humans. Therefore, although hippos may appear clumsy and cute in appearance, you must keep your distance in the wild to avoid angering them.

3. What does it mean when a hippo opens its mouth?

When a hippo opens its mouth, there are usually several meanings. First, it may be a threatening behavior, showing sharp teeth to warn enemies or fellows and show aggression. Secondly, hippos may also open their mouths in social situations, where males use this behavior to show dominance or fight. Sometimes they yawn or stretch their jaws to indicate relaxation or fatigue. In short, when a hippo opens its mouth, it is not only an attack signal, but also a manifestation of social or physiological needs.
