The one who was brought up like a child, fed with his own hands, when the time came, became a savage, and chewed up the one who saved him!

You must have heard many such stories in which, after adopting a wild animal, a person lived with it for the rest of his life. There are many stories of animal loyalty, but it is not necessary that any creature will remain loyal all the time. Especially before adopting wild animals, we should understand that trusting them blindly can be harmful for you at any time.

You must have heard that if you hold someone with your hand, it will not harm you. Be it a human being or an animal. However, after the story we are going to tell you today, you will completely lose faith in such things. Although this story is not new but it is going viral once again on social media.

Picked up an ‘orphan’ animal and raised it
According to the report of Daily Star, a farmer named Maurice Else, resident of South Africa, had found a 5-month-old hippo. His name was Humphrey, who was saved from the flood. When he grew up, Maurice kept him in his 400-acre farm and also built a big pond for him. Maurice taught orphan Humphrey to swim with humans and used his hands to feed him and brush his teeth. He treated him like his son and trusted him like his eyes. He also used to ride on a 102 kg hippo and also got photographs taken with it.

Then one day…he became a beast
Hippo is one of the most dangerous animals in the world, but he had a good friendship with Maurice. Humphrey once attacked and killed two people, yet Maurice did not understand the danger. People also tried to convince him but his trust never broke. Finally, in November 2011, the time came when Humphrey became a savage animal and killed his own protector. Maurice’s body was found near the same river from where Humphrey was rescued. Recently, 1.2 million people watched this story on YouTube and expressed their condolences for Maurice.
