Nilski konj progutao dvogodišnje dete, a zatim ga živog povratio

Incident se dogodio u zapadnom okrugu Kasese u Ugandi dok se dečak igrao ispred kuće, navodi se u izveštaju koji se poziva na lokalnu policiju.

Jedan muškarac identifikovan kao Krispas Bagonza, je video napad i odmah skočio u akciju. Počeo je da baca kamenje na nilskog konja što je naposletku preplašilo nilskog konja do tačke kada je dečaka povratio živog, i pobegao u obližnje jezero Edvard.

„Ovo je prvi takav incident u kojem je nilski konj izleteo iz jezera Edvard i napao malo dete“, saopštile su policijske snage Ugande.

Nilski konji pobiju više ljudi svake godine nego sve ostale opasne životinje zajedno, inače nilski konj je valjda nekakav rod sa svinjama, mada nije svinja, međutim, bliźi rod od svinje (na kojiu pomalo podseća) su mu morski sisari koji su od reda mesojedi i predatori. Biljojed je ali povremeno i on lovi i jede sve što može da savlada kad je baš gladan.

Veoma su pametni, i zbog toga još opasniji - ukoliko ih loviš, umeju da se pritaje, a onda noću celo krdo kreće u osvetu, cela sela su sravnjivati sa zemljom zbog lovaca, uz veliki broj poginulih.
 
Nilski konj izgleda smešno, čak i simpatično, ali je krajnje opasan, cela sela umeju da drže i pod opsadom, i strogo brane svoju teritoriju od konkurencije - potpuno podivljaju ako loviš ribu u njihovoj reci:

LYING IN HOSPITAL with bloodied bandages over the deep gashes in his legs, Senegalese fisherman Ali Fall recalls the moment a hippopotamus tried to kill him as he hauled in nets in a local river.

“I came with another fisherman to pick up the nets I had left when the hippopotamus upended our boat. My friend got away but it bit into my left leg, then my right,” said the shaken 25-year-old.

The waters of Gouloumbou in eastern Senegal, a tributary of the river Gambia and the village where Fall lives, have often run red with the blood of his peers.

In the last decade, 25 fishermen have been mauled to death in the giant jaws of these easy to provoke mammals with many more injured, village officials said. “It’s the second time I’ve been attacked, after their first attempt in 2014. I’ve cheated death twice,” said Fall from his hospital bed in the nearby city of Tambacounda.

Back in Gouloumbou, which lies 500 kilometres (310 miles) east of the capital Dakar, village chief Abdoulaye Barro Watt looks out of the windows of his office, next to the river where locals continue to risk death with few other options for a livelihood in this rural area.

Make a living

“They were all fishermen hoping to make a living for their families,” he said.

These men are struggling to survive due to these attacks. I have written so many letters to the authorities, even the fisheries minister, to make them aware of the problem.

Gouloumbou villagers and the massive hippopotamuses once lived together in relative safety, the chief said. “We used to play with them in the river. They were harmless.”

“That has all changed,” said fisherman Abdoulaye Sarr, sitting with a friend, Moussa Bocar Gueye. “They are evil monsters who attack us night and day. Because of them, we haven’t been fishing.”
Both men are from the “thiouballo” ethnic group which has long made its living from fishing but neither will be launching their “pirogue”, or traditional wooden boat, onto the river today.

“It’s three weeks since we last went fishing,” Gueye added. “There aren’t any more fish at the market.”

Hippopotamuses, vegetarians that live in or near swamps and rivers, can weigh up to 1,500 kilogrammes (3,300 pounds) and spend long hours in water to protect their skin from the sun.

Easily irritated with terrifying strength, the mammals kill more humans each year than almost any other animal in Africa because of their volatile nature, according to wildlife experts.

Protected, but deadly

Senegal lists the hippopotamus as a protected species, so culling them is illegal. Their current number is unknown, but a survey is underway to track their presence in the country.

It is not only fishermen who fear the giant beasts. A lack of running water makes villagers dependent on the river to wash themselves and their clothes.
