English
- a.k.a. I am for the Hippopotamus
German (Deutsch)
- a.k.a. Das Krokodil und sein Nilpferd
Südafrika: Tom, wegen seines Aussehens Nilpferd genannt, fährt mit seinem Bus reiche Touristen und Großwildjäger durch den Busch. Was seine Gäste nicht wissen: Als Tierliebhaber lädt er die Gewehre mit Platzpatronen. Sein Bruder Slim engagiert sich ebenfalls für die Natur. Diese Idylle stört der hinterlistige Spekulant Mr. Ormond. Er plant die Eingeborenen um ihr Land zu bringen und ein Safari-Paradies für das Jet-Set aufzuziehen. Das können Slim und Tom nicht dulden.
French (Français)
Deux frères - Slim et Tom - vivent de petites magouilles. Malgré leurs incessantes querelles, ils vont s'opposer à un ancien champion de boxe, Mr. Ordmond, qui tente d'expulser tous les habitants d'une région pour en faire un parc destiné aux traffics d'ivoire et d'animaux.
Italian (Italiano)
- a.k.a. Io sto con gli ippopotami
Africa 1950, Tom organizza safari per turisti, armandoli a loro insaputa di fucili caricati a salve. All'arrivo del cugino di Tom, Slim, fannullone ma furbo, nonché convinto ambientalista, i due entrano in conflitto con Jack Ormond, un trafficante di animali locale. Un medico amico della coppia denuncia su un giornale lo sfruttamento degli animali da parte di Ormond, il quale invia i suoi scagnozzi a distruggere la clinica in cui esercita il buon dottore. Ma al loro arrivo, gli scagnozzi di Ormond trovano ad aspettarli Tom e Slim, che in men che non si dica fanno piazza pulita degli energumeni con una scazzottata di esilarante comicità. Ormond cerca, a questo punto, di corrompere i due cugini e, non riuscendoci, li fa imprigionare per un furto mai commesso. Evasi dalla prigione, i due si precipitano alla nave di Ormond facendo polpette degli uomini del mercante e liberando tutti gli animali rari da lui catturati.
