Is this proof animals have a sense of morality and compion?
try watching the video clip with the sound off...it looks more like the hippo was just trying to show the croc 'who's boss'...the 'great concern' stems mainly from the narration...i'm guessing the hippo was having a taste and decided against an impala sandwich...in the end, the croc got his meal...i don't think the video is proof of anything other than our own ability to project our own feelings onto another species...check out a beloved house-cat 'toying' with a mouse or a bird sometime and ask yourself, "playing with dinner, having some fun, or torture?" anthropomorphizing works well in disney cartoons, but in nature? not so much
