Epic hippos' fight

Africam, Idube cam

I asked about the hippos at Idube and Donnabac answered me on Boma (Africam's forum)...Of course there is a possibility new individuals have invaded at the dam. It is difficult to tell ...

Fani, there is a resident female hippo with two calves, an adult male and another female at Idube, making 5 residents we have seen lately. The older calf, play fights with the male. The male is mating with the other female and I think Mom stepped in to protect "Junior".  Kids!!!  I'm not all caught up today, but someone said there might be other hippos now.  I hope they all learn to get along and Junior behaves. This is not conclusive, of course. Time will tell .
