Life and death at the Masai Mara, 5:17 pm and 40 seconds sent on August 24, 2023 (20:45) by _Axl_. 42 comments, 1617 views. [retina]

at 238mm, 1/250 f/7.1, ISO 2500, hand held. Masai Mara, Kenya.

E' finita, il leone si riposa dopo aver così tanto faticato. La zebra è morta. Ho scattato il primo fotogramma alle 16:02 e l'ultimo alle 17:17. In questa ora e 15 minuti ho visto una zebra attaccarsi con una forza e una voglia alla sua vita che le ha fatto, davvero, onore. Prima, ferita, è riuscita a sfuggire ad un coccodrillo nell'habitat di questo. Ma, una volta a riva, ferita, nulla ha potuto contro l'attacco di un leone maschio. "Riccardo we must go! The Talek Gate is closing!" mi avverte il driver, dobbiamo andare, il gate di Talek è in chiusura. Resto fermo un attimo, vorrei ancora vedere se qualche altro carnivoro verrà a contendere al leone la preda. Ma le regole sono chiare, il driver detta i tempi, non possiamo rimanere oltre. Andiamo via con tantissima compassione nel cuore, una zebra è morta, un coccodrillo non ha avuto il suo pasto, il Re, invece, ha preteso e ottenuto il suo. La notte avrà, forse, portato lì branchi di iene, altri leoni o altri coccodrilli. A me attende una birra al Campo tendato da condividere con il mio driver, è stata una giornata dalle emozioni forti ed indimenticabili. Ho visto una vita cessare perchè altre potessero proseguire. Duro. Crudele. Il Cerchio della Vita. Amo l'Africa.

Beautiful sequence, raw and distressing in certain passages, but this is the law of life.
Man does not deviate much from this law, he has only made it softer.
Admirable emotional control throughout this time.
Congratulations for the excellent job

Congratulations for the excellent work Francesco

Thank you very much for the wonderful words Francesco!
I must confess that it is hard to see a helpless life that ends, the zebra could not really do anything, on land it could have kicked the lion and / or run away while in the water it was prey to the crocodile, as you can see from the various photos it also tried to bite it but the crocodile's armor protected it.
I'm glad if this photo gave you something!

Hello,Riccardo

Dramatic and tragic reportage but still exceptional.
Anyway... Seen how it was reduced after the clash with the crocodile better that the lion has finished ...
She would still die suffering within a few hours.

Truly exceptional!
I looked at all the photos in the sequence and am impressed by how harsh the laws of nature are. Poor zebra! The wizard comes to see how much struggle and suffering he had to face, without being able to survive. On the other hand, even predators must eat to survive...
Very nice and heartfelt comment captions. Thank you!
