Wild nature always knows how to surprise people with its interestingness.

Giraffes are a special animal, recognized as the tallest mammal in the world thanks to their long legs and lanky neck. This herbivore species lives mainly in deserts, sparse forests, and savannas and is found almost exclusively in Africa.

Unlike elephants, their large shape puts giraffes at many disadvantages. Although they only drink water every few days, every time they move to a water source, they often have to kneel, crouch and bend their necks, making giraffes vulnerable to predators like lions. death, leopard… in the African desert.

However, when placed on the boundary between life and death, miracles can still happen, like in the story below.

Mr. Francois Pienaar, a tour guide, was lucky enough to appear at the right place, at the right time, to be able to capture the most magical moments of giraffes surrounded by ferocious lions.

That day, while hunting around the Klaserie Animal Sanctuary, Mr. Pienaar’s group encountered a group of lions sleeping and resting as usual. Although he is no stranger to this group of lions, every time he sees them in peace, the tour guide still cannot help but feel excited and moved by the majestic and powerful beauty of this animal.

The lions only need to rest for a few minutes before starting the battle to hunt and survive.

While observing the lions, Pienaar realized that they had identified the attack target as a very old giraffe leisurely nearby. It seems that age has caused the deer to lose its inherent sensitivity. The proof is that when the lions approached, the poor animal still did not know the danger that was coming.

After about 20 minutes of stalking, the lions decided to take action. Pienaar’s group ran after and hoped they could catch their prey on this hunting trip.

Under the watchful eyes of the group of people following, the lions began swinging on the giraffe. Some bite their prey’s legs so it can’t move. Meanwhile, a female lion, possibly the leader of the hunting group, jumped onto the prey’s back.

After a long struggle and to everyone’s surprise, the lions finally stopped the giraffe. The remaining problem is how to defeat the prey.

The old giraffe looks like it’s old. Even though it was surrounded and attacked from all sides, it refused to give up. After a while of maneuvering and fighting, the giraffe defeated the lions and was able to escape safely.
