Two tourists in Kenya were lucky to witness the exciting chase of the
cheetah family behind the antelope swamp, and then watch its unexpected
rescue from the clutches of predators. And a positive role, oddly
enough, went to the hungry hyena, which is confirmed by the shots shown
below.
The record was made last week in a popular among foreign tourists
Kenyan reserve Masai Mara. On the shots you can see that the wild cats
drove and actually pushed the long-resisted antelope to the ground, but
then a large hyena intervened in the process of distributing the food.
The animal easily frightened away the cheetahs, but he did not eat
the antelope meat – the latter instantly disappeared, leaving predators
with a nose.
