Just to digress even more from the main topic, let me break it down.

I was in South Africa about a year and a half ago, on this three-day safari. The first night we stayed in the town by a river/estuary that was a major hotspot for stuff like alligators and hippos. Now even though the hippos live in the river, they journey out to the surrounding grassy areas to eat. And they usually do this during the middle of the night. So apparently, in the town by the river, it's not unusual to spot hippos wandering down the streets at 2 or 3 a.m. on their way to eat. And if there's one animal you don't want to fuck with, it's a hippo. They cause more human deaths every year than any other animal.
