Crocodiles Bite The Face Off Zebra While Crossing Mara River on a Safari in Kenya

  • Recently, I was on a Safari at Masai Mara National Park in Kenya this year for the “Great Wildebeest Migration”. Every year during the season of the Great Migration the zebras must take the risk of crossing many rivers in order to get to the grass that they badly need in order to survive. If the zebras do not get to their source of food they may perish. Sometimes, after crossing a river full of hungry crocodiles, the zebras do not find good grass on the other side. Then they will turn around and go back through the same river to face the vicious crocodiles all over again. My Safari guide was a local I met named Jonathan Lenjir. Jonathan was such an amazing guide. He is a Masai Warrior from the Masai tribe in Kenya.
    My great joy in life is travel and sharing my travel experiences with others - the good and the bad. If you look at my videos you can see that I try to show extraordinary and beautiful things, even in harsh conditions. I originally posted this video, in particular, because it shows the amazing and strong will of the animals of Masai Mara National Reserve to live, something many of the viewers picked up on.
    I did feel very bad for the suffering that the zebra went through. It was very difficult to watch and witness in person. In no way do I wish to disrespect this zebra by showing the fight. She was so very strong, she fought against 4 crocodiles and was still standing. I will never forget how hard this zebra fought for her life and did not give up easily. It makes me feel an even greater respect for life and all living things. Life is so fragile and precious. This happens every day in the wild where no one can see the intense struggle to live that goes on.
    One viewer called the zebra in this video "Zebra-heart," like Brave-heart. That's exactly what I was trying to show! Masai Mara National Reserve, like many of the wild places left in this world, is beautiful and harsh - just like life.
    It was hard to watch the zebra fight and do nothing. However there was no way I could have tried to save the Zebra from her death. The Masai Mara National Reserve in Kenya does not permit interference and no guns are permitted into the park.

    There have been many comments suggesting a bridge be built for the zebras to cross the river I understand your sympathy for the zebra. However, the other side of the river is the country of Tanzania. So, it would have to be an international bridge. Also, the Masai Mara wildlife park is trying to stay as natural as possible without creating man-made structures such as bridges. In addition, there are many other rivers the zebras must cross to get to their food source. Should there be bridges built everywhere for the zebras to use? Kenya is a 3rd world county with many other issues that should take priority over building bridges for zebras. Crocodiles can lay and wait on bridges too.
    Also, if the crocodiles all starve and die it will throw off the balance of nature.
    I know people believe zebras are cute and most people don't find crocodiles to be beautiful. That doesn't mean that crocodiles are evil and zebras are good. Thank you for watching

People used to share territory with Cave bears which were up to 12-13 feet tall when standing on 2 legs. They were 2 or 3 times bigger than grizzly bears. Past humans had common meetings with them because both lived in caves.

    Sorry the video was so shaky. I am not a professional photographer. I basically just pulled my cell phone out of my pocket and started recording. But it does make the footage even more amazing that it got so many millions of views. National Geographic would love to get such video. I'm sure they carry around tens of thousands of dollars of equipment. I did not have an expensive camera like large professional productions use. There was also a lot going on during the filming. The wind was blowing, and we had been waiting out in the sun for many, many hours. I was kind of exhausted and sort of balancing on the top of the truck. There was nowhere to put a camera stand. Every breath I took shook the phone. At times I was holding my breath for long periods trying not to move the phone/camera. I actually could not even see what I was shooting at because of the sun. I was just recording blindly in the direction of the action. Only afterwards when I was looking closely at the video did I clearly see the entire animal attack.

      Because this animal is stupid. It is obvious that even the dumbest person would never find himself in such a situation, and if a person found himself in such a situation, he would give up, not because the person is weak, but because the person is smart enough to make the decision to die. Humans would sacrifice even more lives if necessary to take revenge; most animals are incapable of this, and are even incapable of accepting their own death.

    Thank you so much for all of your comments. There have been many comments suggesting a bridge be built for the zebras to cross the river I understand your sympathy for the zebra. However, the other side of the river is the country of Tanzania. So, it would have to be an international bridge between the countries of Kenya and Tanzania. Also, the Masai Mara wildlife park is trying to stay as natural as possible without creating man-made structures such as bridges. In addition, there are many other rivers the zebras must cross to get to their food source. Should there be bridges built everywhere for the zebras to use? You would need to build a bridge every few hundred feet for hundreds of miles. Even then the animals might not choose to even use the bridge. The Crocodiles can also lay and wait on top of bridges too. Kenya is a 3rd world county with many other issues that should take priority over building bridges for zebras.
    Also, if the crocodiles all starve and die it will throw off the balance of nature. It would have tragic consequences.
    I know people believe zebras are cute and most people don't find crocodiles to be beautiful. That doesn't mean that crocodiles are evil and zebras are good. Thank you for watching.

      Zebra social structures are not like other horses’, most of which have hierarchical family structures (with the most experienced stallion and mare leading the herd). Most Zebra species have a loose herd structure that’s only together because of safety in numbers, and not necessarily because of social bonds.
      Zebras are also unpredictable and more aggressive than feral horses or horse species that were domesticated. It’s theorized that such behavior developed due to the hunting of zebras by early humans, creating a sort of instinctual fear.

      We often talk of man's "bestial" cruelty, but this is terribly unjust and insulting to beasts: a wild animal can never be as cruel as man, as artistic, as refined in his cruelty. The crocodile mauls and tears its prey because that is all it knows. It would never enter its head to leave people all night nailed by their ears, even if it could do it. There were people , incidentally, that took a sadistic pleasure in torturing children, starting with cutting them out of their mothers' wombs with a dagger, and going so far as to throw babes-in-arms into the air and impale them on the points of their bayonets before their mothers' very eyes. Doing it before the mothers' eyes was what gave it particular piquancy. But here is one example that I find quite fascinating. Picture the scene: an infant in the arms of its trembling mother, surrounded by the several enemy soldiers. They have thought up an amusing game: they caress the child, laugh to make it laugh; they succeed, the child laughs. At just that moment one of them aims his pistol at the child, six inches from its face. The child chuckles gleefully, holds out its little hands to grab the pistol, and suddenly the evil joker discharges the pistol full in its face and blows its little head to pieces... Now tell me if any animal would be as artistically as cruel…

    Thank you so much for your all your questions. There have been many comments suggesting a bridge be built for the zebras to cross the river I understand your sympathy for the zebra. However, the other side of the river is the country of Tanzania. So, it would have to be an international bridge. Also, the Masai Mara wildlife park is trying to stay as natural as possible without creating man-made structures such as bridges. In addition, there are many other rivers the zebras must cross to get to their food source. Should there be bridges built everywhere for the zebras to use? Kenya is a 3rd world county with many other issues that should take priority over building bridges for zebras. Crocodiles can lay and wait on bridges too.
    Also, if the crocodiles all starve and die it will throw off the balance of nature.
    I know people believe zebras are cute and most people don't find crocodiles to be beautiful. That doesn't mean that crocodiles are evil and zebras are good. Thank you for watching .

      Depends on the zebra species. Many species follow loose herd structures, which are only together because of safety in numbers, numbers being a key word here.
      To compare and contrast, while elephant herds will respond to dangers by banding together to protect themselves and their young, zebras will just run away as a whole, but not actually caring for each others’ safety. To put it into human analogy, elephants are when a dangerous person threatens a group of friends, they will try to fight or at least ensure each others’ safety. Zebras are when someone makes a threat and a crowd mindlessly rushes to the exits, fleeing altogether, but putting themselves first and not caring for the people that get trampled or attacked. Of course, the analogy is imperfect since human nature is different, but it should show the contrast quite well.

    Fun Fact: A group of zebras can be called a “Dazzle”. This name comes from the dazzling motion effect of a group of running zebras. Some zoologists think zebras use their stripes as camouflage when the heard is in a big group to confuse predators. This makes it more difficult to single out individual zebras to attack. I like that they are called a Dazzle. They are dazzling!
