en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hippopotamus/Also, as I said they won't fight each other as 1 hippo doesn't care about the other and the elephant know there is 1 there, saw his sensor ears? Each step gives an echo.

BUT, if a hippo is so stupid to try and attack the calve, he fucked, because they with many.
That far your logic reach, turn kid mode on pls.
Interspecies interactions
A hippopotamus and Nile crocodile side by side in Kruger National Park
Hippos coexist alongside a variety of large predators in their habitats. Nile crocodiles, lions, and spotted hyenas are known to prey on young hippos.Beyond these, adult hippos are not usually preyed upon by other animals due to their aggression and size. Cases where large lion prides have successfully preyed on adult hippos have been reported, but it is generally rare.[84] Lions occasionally prey on adults at Gorongosa National Park and calves are sometimes taken at Virunga.Crocodiles are frequent targets of hippo aggression, probably because they often inhabit the same riparian habitats; crocodiles may be either aggressively displaced or killed by hippos.[86] In turn, very large Nile crocodiles have been observed preying occasionally on calves, "half-grown" hippos, and possibly also adult female hippos. Groups of crocodiles have also been observed finishing off still-living male hippos that were previously injured in mating battles with other males.
Read at least the wiki before answer.
An elephant is no predator. It's defence is the coup. And whether that elephant is in the water or on land in that battle, but only few confrontations took place, as I said the coup.
On plain land it wins, in water even low it looses elephant, and even on land depending whether it is the biggest in the coup or not. They generally don't mess with each other..
And as the off-topic went from Walrus that inhabits the north pole never will meet any Elephant to get to what about Hippo's> off topic again but they not meet generally as well and avoid, only not if a calve is attacked.
Like Crocodiles a Hippo is an ancient predator, the elephant> not.
What if walrus camps in water
Hippo, being cleverer than the average 1 e4 player, lies in wait in the water, where it's aqueous dexterity makes it the mammal of choice. Pity the elephant who tries to take on a hippo 1 on 1 in the hippo's native element.
Can 20 elephants beat 1 hippo? Of course. But what sort of greatness does that imply? None at all. Bullies can gang up, but it doesn't make them great.
When you meet a hippo, make sure to treat it with respect, stay well away, and refer to it from a vast distance (and perferably from behind a competent fence) as "sir" or "madam" -- never as "hey, you, fat mammal...."
Hippo is the "Minnesota Fats" of the animal kingdom. Large, but graceful and skilled. Like 1 d4 players.
