For human beings excrement is only a residue of what you ate now, but for other living things it is not so. Although it is famous for dogs to pee to people and insist on their territory, excreta plays a similar role for other animals. Furthermore, it is said that in the case of Hippo, there is a meaning of intimidation. I think that there are also some people you know, Hippopotamus is as strong as there are people who call it the strongest creature among mammals. However, since children are not so, there is a danger that carnivorous beasts are aimed at. Therefore, it seems that there is an effect to notify the enemy by notifying that "strong myself is here" by spreading feces. There will also be meaning to avoid wasteful battle by warning others. Even scratches in the wild environment can lead to fatal injuries. It is a warning method unique to strong creatures. Conversely, cats hide feces with sand, but this is the wisdom of carnivores and it is said that there is meaning to hide their whereabouts. Prey will escape if you know that there are carnivorous animals here. It was the co-material about the excrement as things mentioned above.
cats are the dumbest animals they will knock stuff off the counter on purpose knowing it's bad, and pee outside the litterbox if it's not clean enough for them and i've used taco bell washrooms before cats are just dumb
@@amazingfireboy1848 Here is my assumption. The Japanese kana ﾍﾟﾁﾍﾟﾁ(pechi pechi) is an onomatopoeia for the sound of the hippo sh*tting itself. So a more accurate translation would be, "My child, stay away from me! SPLAT SPLAT SPLAT SPLAT SPLAT SPLAT SPLAT" etc.
