I was wary to post the photos because I don’t want people from other countries to think that this is the norm. It definitely isn’t. They are gentle giants, but not to be messed with - ever. I was terrified! It was a very dangerous situation I found myself in, but I’m so happy it turned out the way it did. I’ll cherish the connection forever.

They very rarely attack people though. You would have to go out of your way to threaten them from what I've heard. Hippos are much more dangerous.
Yes @thecryptofriend, if left unprovoked, white rhinos are less likely to attack. Let's not test the theory though. Hippos are born pissed-off and will attack any chance it gets.
