Not native to Africa but not a stranger to Africa, either.
And yes, it's bigger than a basketball.

Sorry.
It's bigger than a baseball, too.
Yes, it lives in, or on, water, most of the time.

Beaver sounds plausible, but I'll guess hippo!

Apparently they stir up the bottom of the riverbed as they walk along, uncovering animals for fish to eat!

 Not a beaver, not an arrdvark and not a hippo. Following the why and the how and the 'in what' of the hole digging is a good way to go, especially combined with the water clue.

Yes, but I'm going for a type this time since it's pretty unique.

I'll let somebody else guess the type, then, because I don't really feel like coming up with an animal.

This seal digs holes in the ice and lives in the water most of the time.
It's range includes parts of Africa but not North America.
It's unique.
There are many types of sea lions and many live in North America.
There are quite a few types of monk seals, as well.
So, no, not sea lions or monk seals.

I did some seal reaearch. I had no idea so many seals could dig in ice. Based on your clue about its range, I am gonna guess...leopard seal?

It's not a walrus, but a walrus certainly fits the unique part of my clues. Yes, it's a leopard seal. They're the only true apex predators in the world's entire seal population. They are mostly Antarticans and nest their pups in ice holes that the females dig. I saw a movie about a team of sled dogs that got left behind for a winter at a research station. They were hungry and found a dead, beached orca. The only problem was that a huge leopard seal was munching on it. The lead dog got the seal to chase her and it was one of the most frightening 30 seconds I've ever seen in a movie. It was breathtaking as it pursued her from under the ice. Anyway, we have done quite a few specific animals so I didn't think it would be a problem.

No problem, Candle. You can be as specific as you like, just be aware that can make the game quite difficult unless some extra hints are thown in. (which you kindly gave.)
Ok, I am thinking of an animal - or at least I will have by the time I check this thread again.

is that one of the silent movie where the a group of British guys went to try to become the first people to reach South Pole, only to discover that someone already beat them?
