check this out



imho the drivers did the correct thing: try to interfere with nature as little as possible - had they not been there, the wildebeest would have had no "safe place", so remove the cars and thus the "safe place"...do you agree?

btw: for those who don't understand German: the editor tells us that from the moment where the video footage ends, it took 13 min for the wildebeest to die, this he found too cruel to show in his upload

It looks like it was taken in the Masai Mara area.

A great video ice. :clap: It is interesting to see that the Gnu tried to use the car as a shield.
Sure it looks really cruel, but that is nature and normally Wild Dogs kill much faster.
