Hangry Hangry Hippos

Raumr headed to the river in search of fish. While the deer and antelope as of late had been delicious, he had a hunkering for something different. Something that didn't include red meat. As he approached the fast moving river, a commotion drew his attention away from his task. Amber eyes scan the bank, soon noticing the baby hippo flicking its ears back and forth as it watched the opposite shore. Raumr's brows scrunch, slowly moving down the bank, heading closer to the baby until he notices what its looking at.

Three rather large wolves tango with the mama hippo who is clearly agitated. His nose wrinkles in disappointment. Why would they attack her if she was simply defending her baby? The noble side of him couldn't allow the wolves to be slaughtered though. He would try his best to make sure all parties survived by the end. Quickly wading and swimming through the river, keeping a wide berth from the baby, Raumr reaches the other side without incident. "Move out of the way of its baby. Maybe it will leave everyone alone," Raumr directs, eyes looking to the koi-patterned female first before eyeing the two already slicing into the hippo.

Without waiting for a response, he moves toward the hippo's face. Just off to the side so she can make eye contact with the baby and he can reach for her wide mouth. Bellowing loudly, he swipes at her face, trying to scare her enough to back down.
