Why Don't We Eat Hippos?

Why don't we eat hippos? Hippos can weigh more than 3,000 pounds, and in some parts of Africa, people have eaten them. So why didn't hippo meat become a normal food source? The answer involves dangerous hunting conditions, the enormous challenge of processing the animal, disease risks such as anthrax, and centuries of cultural history. This documentary explores the strange reasons humans largely chose not to turn one of the world's biggest animals into food.
