The ANC in KwaZulu-Natal says that it is deeply concerned by reports of attacks by wild animals on members of the public and livestock in the north of the province, following a fatal attack by a hippopotamus on a man in Hluhluwe.

​

The party said that it had been reported that a man identified as Mbuyiseni Nxumalo died after he had been attacked by a hippopotamus in Hluhluwe, while the community of Ntandabantu in Mtubatuba had complained about being harassed by elephants roaming the area after escaping from a nearby game reserve.

Yip. You can add all the murders. But when a Hippo kills you - That's a major problem.

True. I'm a hippo and elephant fan. Black dude getting chomped - not my problem.

Isn't this the same ANC branch that has one of the highest assassination rates in the country?

They can commission a study on this. Like the lightning one. Make it a two volume set of pure comedy gold.

Farm attacks don't affect white people only.

Strange how they complain about apartheid colonizing them & imposing artificial borders, disturbing their territory & migration routes, but they fail to recognize how they doing exactly the same to the wildlife..

Sub "black" with "white" and you have Malema. So, you're not different from the man. Just opposite ends of the political spectrum.

You're right. Let me get out of here

Ask a friend to explain to you..

Okay! Who stole the fences ...

Hippos are easy to stop. A cable ~30cm above the ground is impassable to it. Elephants, call in the heavy armour fencers.
