During a safari party in Zambia, the horrifying moment was captured when a powerful female African elephant trampled to death a crocodile that was stalking the calf in the Zambezi River wetlands. The terrifying encounter between two giant animals made tourist Hans Henrik Haahr feel “shocked”.
[Conversation between Hans Henrik Haahr and the safari guide]
Hans Henrik Haahr (HHH): Oh my God, look, what is that elephant doing?
Tour guide (HV): It’s definitely doing something very special, Hans. Go back and record this video!
HHH: (recording video) This is the most magical thing I’ve ever seen here.
HV: That’s right, Hans. We don’t often see revenge like this in animals.
[Video begins showing the elephant attacking the crocodile]
HHH: (speaking in video) Maybe this is a revenge attack, what do you think?
HV: Sure, Hans. Something must have happened before that made the elephant so angry.
[Video continues to record the scene of an elephant trampling a crocodile to death]
HHH: (continues filming) It’s crushing the crocodile. The size of the crocodile is also quite large.
HV: That’s exactly a powerful attack. The elephant uses its weight to win.
[The video ends with the elephant lifting the crocodile out of the water]
HHH: (conclusion) Unbelievable, it didn’t even hesitate to lift its tail.
HV: Life in the bush is very harsh, Hans. This shows the uniqueness and cruelty of nature.
[Facebook conversation from Baines River Camp]
Baines River Camp: We share this remarkable video to show everyone how pristine the wildlife is. This is probably the revenge scene between the two largest animals in Africa.
Viewer: It’s scary, but this is the reality of nature. Thank you for sharing this video.
The meeting between an elephant and a crocodile created a magical moment, while emphasizing the harshness of nature. This video has attracted the attention of the online community, exploring the brutal and fascinating side of wild life.
