A two-year-old boy survived a hippopotamus attack in Uganda after being partially swallowed! According to a spokesperson for the Uganda Police Force this week, the incident went down on December 4 when the child, identified by authorities as Iga Paul, was playing near his house in the town of Katwe-Kabatoro and a hippo suddenly grabbed him and “swallowed half of his body.” OMG!!!!
Thankfully, a bystander – identified by police as Chrispas Bagonza – had been nearby and threw stones at the animal to get it to spit the toddler out of its mouth.
The police said: The child was rushed to a clinic to treat injuries on his hand and was later moved to Bwera Hospital for further care.
He reportedly received a vaccine for rabies. Per the Uganda Police Force, Iga was discharged from the hospital and released to his parents after making a full recovery.
