Wow!

Definitely dont ever want to piss off a Rhino...




 
He sure don't like zebra VW....
 
Good reason not to drive a compact car
 
Yikes! I heard about this. I think it was a lady driving. I’ll bet that was a rush!
 
Incredible strength, tossed it like a toy.
 
Yeah I guess a rhino weighs more than a hippo? Just read that somewhere on line. Like most things, I didn’t know that!
 
On my first safari ever were were at an area where two young females needed to be darted and tagged. 15 of these massive animals on that place. When we arrived to observe our trucks stopped about 250 yards away from the Bull and a group of cows that were grazing. The bull knew we were there as the PH and farm guide parked up wind of the group to let them know where we were. The farm guide said we don’t want them scattering through the high grass and run into us when the chopper arrives. Sure enough when the whole group heard the chopper they began to scatter. But the bull headed straight for us at a run, folks when he got to within 50 yards you could feel the thumps as his feet clubbed the ground. The drivers hit the gas to get away. You just knew that there was immense power in that bull.
 
I've seen videos of rhinos ramming vehicles and pushing them a little but nothing like this. I bet he outweighs that bug by a healthy margin and I would not want to be in it.
