Hippos fighting

The cameraman set up a stout hide days before starting to film to habituate the hippos to his presence. Day after day he had to creep into the hide before full daylight and wait to get a good shot. As many of the hippos die, the worst thing about filming was the smell of dead hippo in the heat of the day.
