    This is a shot that many a wild life photographer will have taken over the years, but each one is unique, despite the common concept. This hippopotamus (hippopotamus amphibious) was part of a very large pod and had popped his head up to observe the threat. Some suggest that 'hippo' have no facial expression, but it is all in the eyes. This beast is definitely giving off expression, probably to the tune that the photographer was invading its privacy, before submerging and honking that all too
