2016 Wildlife Photo Contest

Hippopotamus, Serengeti National Park, Tanzania (Africa)
Battle or Bluster?

Species: Hippopotamus | Location: Serengeti National Park, Tanzania (Africa)

When these two bull hippos began this "battle" in a large watering hole, it appeared to be a possible territorial dispute. However, as the action continued, it seemed that their aggressiveness was more similar to a couple of boys on a playground, flexing their muscles and vying for attention. Either way, their powerful movements were fast-and-furious and made for great action shots.
