A photographer in the Serengeti has captured spectacular footage of a group of hippos attacking a crocodile.
These explosive pictures show the moment a hasty crocodile was killed after getting trapped in a maze of angry hippos. The spectacularly rare battle of the beasts was caught on camera by stunned wildlife photographer Vaclav Silha.
The 45-year-old Czech got the shock of his life after setting up his camera on the banks of the Nile River in the Serengeti National Park, Tanzania, to take snaps of a huge group of 50 hippos bathing in the river.
A colossal fight broke out between the group and a sneaky crocodile that strayed too close to a mother with calves.
The unlucky crocodile's armored body was no match for the raging hippos - one of the most aggressive creatures in the animal kingdom that can apply several tons of pressure in a single bite.
