1. Careful there.

I reposted this meme once (maybe here, maybe somewhere else) and got accused of every "ism" imaginable by the SATP (Self-Appointed Thought Police).

6. That is the animal I was most scared of there you'd think lions or even cobras but for me when

hippos come out of the water at evening
May the SATP here and everywhere make what they want of my anti hippo stance 😁

7. Hippos kill more people in Africa than lions. All of these

wild animals can outrun and kill.

4. I used to watch a live cam in Africa.

Pete’s Pond. The camera was trained on the pond, but there were giraffes fighting in the background a lot. Funny to watch them drink, too. Long way to get that face to the water.

8. Imagine how fast they could run

if they could switch leg and neck lengths.

I sometimes wonder how our early human ancestors survived all the African predators enough to continue evolving. Or, for that matter, how people living in small villages today avoid predator attacks.
