Its prey tried to flee, but thanks to the predator’s incredible speed, the cheetah finally managed to catch it and take it down.
Everything was all going fine until something rather unexpected happened. A furious hyena suddenly appeared and immediately staked its claim. The mother, without a second thought, immediately left her prey still alive on the ground and fled.
The mother cheetah managed to escape so that she could protect her young from the furious predator and the hyena succeeded in stealing its enemy’s prey and enjoying its food in peace.
Hyenas are considered malicious and selfish animals and this video is just further proof of how little remorse these creatures have when it comes to taking advantage of other animals in the jungle.
