Baboons are experts stone throwers; whatever you do, never throw stones or objects — you’ll come out second best. On the other hand, smiling or laughing in full view of male baboons can be perceived as an invitation to a brawl. However, the biggest mistake you can make is displaying food or trying to take back food that is already in their hands. Likewise, avoid walking in the middle of a troop, rather walk around them. When it comes to humans, the hippopotamus is a tsunami waiting to happen as shown by an Animal Behaviour Expert.
These beasts are masterpieces in both form and function. They are fast on both land and water (capable of reaching speeds of up to 30km/h or 19 mph). This is despite weighing 4,500 kg (9,900 lb). When you encounter a raging hippo, the best option is to run faster than Usain Bolt. Its incisors can slice chunks of flesh off you while you flee. If you survive the melee, you could be left with little flesh on your backside to seat comfortably ever again.
