Vaclav Silha, the Czech photographer, had set up his camera on the banks of the Grumeti river in the Serengeti National Park, Tanzania, to take snaps of 50 hippos bathing in the river.
But the peaceful scene was broken when the bathers were interrupted by a crocodile.
"Mutual respect between these animals means fights occur very rarely," said Mr Vaclav, 45.
"One of the only reasons you might see a conflict is if the hippos have young and they think the little ones are under threat. That's exactly what happened here.
"The incautious croc got too close to a female who had calves and the whole group gathered into a defensive circle around them. It was a strong message for the croc to clear off.

Hey there this is kinda of off topic but I was wondering if blogs use WYSIWYG editors or
if you have to manually code with HTML. I'm starting a blog soon but have no coding expertise so
I wanted to get guidance from someone with
experience. Any help would be enormously appreciated!
