Sometimes it’s not until you don’t see what you want to see, that you truly open your eyes.

Joh! 
Very good encounter!
Seems to be the answer to all the dead hippo ending up at the LS weir! A bully!
Males can and do become relentless sometimes, determined to kill the opponent, and this can carry on for a day and night or more, until it is done!
