La battaglia è durata un'ora. Lo gnu cercava di divincolarsi, il coccodrillo non riusciva a trascinarlo sotto. Con un lento e cauto avvicinamento - il coccodrillo era enorme e loro avevano dei piccoli - è venuto in "soccorso" un gruppo di ippopotami. Uno ha aggredito il coccodrillo, che ha dovuto mollare la presa. Lo gnu ha raggiunto la riva, ma lì, purtroppo, è rimasto: le zampe posteriori erano spezzate. Dopo che gli ippopotami se ne sono andati, il coccodrillo è tornato per finire il lavoro... Una delle scene più incredibili cui io abbia mai assistito.

A sad but non-violent story, or if you want of violence that has a precise justification. Always sorry, but nature has its own laws.
A moment of great emotional and particular impact.
Congratulations

Unfortunately, whenever I took a photo of a heron, I never had such a spectacular foreground! MrGreen

@Lukeskywalker, Gabbia65 and Axl, late but... Thank you! :-P
@WolfgangK, I was actually taking a picture of the heron, but the crocodile and the wildebeest photobombed it... ;-)
Have a good weekend everyone! Susy
