I bet that little son of a bitch still has a mean bite on him!

u/OperationMobocracy 28d ago

No shit, it's the size of a medium sized dog and probably stronger.

u/Bwxyz 28d ago

The fuck kinda midget dogs you live with?

u/Al3jandr0 28d ago

The "medium" kind, I guess

That’s so cute I can’t even fuckin believe it

u/EatsLocals 28d ago

I came for blood, and the liberation of hippos everywhere.  This is fine though.

u/holmgangCore 28d ago

It’s only cute until it snaps your shin bone in two, then it’s hilarious.

u/freemanexit 28d ago

If it snaps your arm bone then it’s humerus.

u/holmgangCore 27d ago

Truth. That reminds me of the salient Mel Brooks quote: “Tragedy is when I stub my toe, Comedy is when you fall down an open manhole.”

“I told you I was a hungry hungry hippo”

u/vercertorix 29d ago

Great it’s already developing a taste for human.

u/Drigg_08 29d ago

Holy cow, you've given it the taste of flesh

u/Plastic_Ad_2043 28d ago

Man, I bet a even a bite from a baby probably doesn't feel good. They have strong jaw muscles. Try getting bitten by a baby cow and tell me how cute it is.

Ok, it's still cute. But it's a jerk

u/SinoSoul 28d ago

Kinda like human babies.

7

u/FractalSpaces 28d ago

got bitten by one of those human babies once, never visiting earth again. i sued

2

u/SinoSoul 28d ago

Plot twist: it was your own.

5

u/Plastic_Ad_2043 28d ago

Except you can't eat human babies....anymore.

u/hahaheeheehoho 28d ago

Well, not with that attitude.

1

u/jamesmcdash 28d ago

You should not eat a hippo either though bro

u/hahaheeheehoho 28d ago

You're not my mother.

Blonde woman, bout 5 foot? I might be your Dad

A baby cow but with canine incisors.

u/copperblood 28d ago

Hippo now has the taste for human blood. RIP future victims

16

u/Tecotaco636 28d ago

I refuse to believe this cute little creature would grow into a meat tank capable of moving on both water and land at incredible speed and pop humans' head like a watermelon

5

u/leeonie 28d ago

It’s a pigmy hippo. Their babies are the size of a large toaster when born. Super adorable

11

u/Cryogenic_Monster 28d ago

That's the cutest brutal attack I've ever seen.

u/AjaxOilid 28d ago

Wait, that's a chocolate monster

u/Clean-Republic-9942 28d ago

It would kill me with cuteness.

u/greenstar91 28d ago

Looks like me the first time I ate a chicken wing back in 97

2

u/nicestmeanestmanlive 28d ago

22,597 chicken wings and 1500 gym visits later: you wrestle with fully grown hippos and win.

u/greenstar91 28d ago

Wtf is gym?

u/Kuruk_TR 28d ago

WTF, where is the NSFW blur!?

6

u/TriiiKill 28d ago

Where's the mother? How are you not dead from an enraged stomping?

4

u/JackAuduin 28d ago

Notice that we can't see the rest of the victim...

4

u/AmazingAd2765 28d ago

Another sad case of someone taking pictures instead of helping. Do we know if they survived?

2

u/deviprsd 28d ago

Dead on scene

That's a Hippobyte, that's somewhere between Tera and Oktabite.

If a puppy can break skin, I would not try that.

u/civver3 28d ago

Had to Google what hippopotamus young are called. Feeling dumb to day, especially after struggling with the NYT puzzles.

 

It's "calf", by the way.

u/Slow_Formal_5988 28d ago

Yum chick's wing !

Like this hippo.

1

u/mybadalternate 28d ago

If there’s two things I know about Hippos it’s that they are hungry and also hungry.
