The was enough to send the hippo jumping to its feet, but as the lioness attempts to make its escape, the hippo gets its revenge through a vicious attack that see it grabbing the lion by its head, and whipping it around before spitting it back out and running off.

21 August 2017 UNDER Blog

A video has surfaced which shows a woman and her 2-year old baby freediving with dolphins. Whilst the video itself is beautiful there is some cause for concern. The footage was taken off Egypt’s coast and posted on Facebook. In the video the woman can be seen keeping a close eye on her child but at time lets go of the infant whilst dolphins swim less than a few metres away. The baby boy seems to be pretty adept at diving and is able to hold his breath until surfacing whilst the dolphins seem used to having human visitors.

Recently a resident of Singapore posted a video to social media which showed a tense battle between a reticulated python and a king cobra which he came across whilst walking along a trail near his home.
