Their striking height protects them from predators such as lions or hyenas, and helps them eat leaves and buds on treetops.
The video captures the scene of the clash between a giraffe mother and a lion in a wildlife reserve.
The newborn giraffe has not long since faced the wildest predators, lions and hyenas.
The lion and the hyena both followed the giraffe mother and daughter, but the hyenas quickly lost interest, leaving only the lions to follow the herd for more than 6 km.
A newborn giraffe was pushed down by its mother several times while trying to escape a predator.
After traveling 6 km, the mother and daughter met a “dead end” due to the river bed blocking it. The cubs have not even had a sip of milk at this time.
In a dangerous situation, the mother giraffe still tries to protect her baby. It panicked and accidentally pushed the baby down the slope, leaving the small animal stuck in the riverbed.
The mother giraffe tries to help her baby escape, but the baby is too weak and cannot climb ashore.
The small animal collapsed and had almost no chance against a formidable predator. The lion took this opportunity to grab it and let it go.
however, the mother giraffe still did not give up and kept chasing the lion. When Don and the others assumed the cub was dead, it suddenly stood up.
“To everyone’s surprise, it got up but it didn’t last long. Finally, it fell asleep from exhaustion in the riverbed. The baby giraffe, after experiencing an unprecedented battle for survival, drowned. ”
