Hippo: Wild Feast Live - Season 1 Episode 3 Day 2
0.00 45 minutes Mark has counted 36 vultures on the carcass, these are hooded and white-backed vultures. The vultures are feeding on the soft parts of the hippo's head as the skin elsewhere will be tough to break through. A marabou stork is looking on. Crocodiles have come out of the river where they were seen last night and are gathering next to the carcass. They are feeding from the back end of the hippo around the anus, another soft part of the body.
The carcass has begun to putrefy and the hippo's body is secreting liquid from the anus, penis and mouth.
