The Gods Must Be Crazy was a childhood favorite of mine, but that’s actually a myth:

But definitely keep your distance from hippos, the most dangerous animal in Africa. They kill hundreds to thousands of people per year.

Thousands is probably pushing it, they kill around ~500 a year: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_deadliest_animals_to_h...

I saw that, but many other places cite numbers such as 3,000. Having lived on that continent for many years, I’d expect many would go unreported in official tallies.
