None if the listed animals actualy eat humans as prey. Lions dont care about humans as long as they dont seem dangerous to them.
And sitting in a car means you look like a big animal.
Leopards, lions, and hippos are not predators of humans. Especially not a whole bunch of humans inside loud scary vehicles. These animals simply have no interest in humans unless they’re provoked or cornered. Attacks by these animals are extraordinarily rare. Additionally, safaris take place inside wildlife preserves where the animals are somewhat accustomed to the presence of vehicles and humans, so they don’t see humans as either threats or prey.
Animals don’t attack people without a reason.
The most common reason is that they want to eat you – most safari animals don’t eat humans, so that one’s out.
Another common one is that you scare them and they want you to go away – that one’s usually also out, most animals encountered on safari are used to seeing land rovers and don’t perceive them as threats.
This is why most safaris don’t allow you to leave the car. The animals may find you scarier once you’re out of the car, which might endanger your life.
