Great Wildebeest Migration Safari

Incredible moment a zebra sunk its teeth into a crocodile’s throat, turning the tables on the predator after it lay in wait to attack a herd crossing a river in Kenya. Amazingly, the zebra was able to successfully defend itself from being trapped in the jaws of the beastly reptile. The brave zebra was then able to get out of the Mara River in the Maasai Mara, and to the safety of dry land.

A good number of crocodiles lurk laying in wait in the water as the herd of zebras was crossing through and they leap out of the water in an attempt to make the zebra its meal. Many zebras disappear into the river amidst a writhing of water and scales. These are fearsome battles of life-or-death.

DANGER CROSSING THE MARA RIVER

Zebras and wildebeest come to the edge of the river approaching very cautiously, clearly aware of the presence of crocodiles. A little splash in the water had them running back to safety. Eventually the urge to cross becomes too much and it only takes one brave zebra to make the move and the rest would follow. Zebras are known to be very dangerous for their back kicks and biting. Its survial at its most severe moment of the great migration at the Maasai Mara.
