The strength, solidarity and courage of the weaker species, despite being threatened, still bravely stood up and fought for the survival of their comrades.
Like a story adapted from a clip filmed in Kenya, it will show us the great spirit of the humped pig (Phacochoerus africanus) when it dares to fight the leopard (Leopard) a skilled hunter in the country. Africa.
The humped pig is an omnivore found in the savannahs and jungles of Africa.
This animal has an ugly appearance, an average height of about 60-80 cm, a weight of about 50 kg, characterized by a pair of long and sharp, curved fangs.
With its fangs, the hump can be used to defend against ferocious predators as well as to attack other smaller animals.
Their food is diverse from vegetables, fruits to insects, mushrooms… If they accidentally encounter the remains of animals, the humped pigs are also ready to eat them all.
They are the favorite prey of animals such as lions, leopards, cheetahs, crocodiles, wild dogs…
In the clip, it can be seen that the humpback pig has become the leopard’s favorite prey, whether it is a piglet or an adult. However, at the end of the clip is an eye-catching scene.
Accordingly, a 13-year-old cheetah, old, has mastered all the tricks of life and is extremely hungry. The inertia of old age does not allow the leopard to freely roam and chase prey like in its youth. Instead, it spends most of its time lying in the tree watching and waiting for the right moment.
In the end, it chose to be a herd of humped pigs consisting of mother and young children.
To facilitate hunting, the leopard left the observation area and hid in a nearby bush. The leopard’s patience paid off, a small humped pig accidentally strayed into the place it was hiding.
Of course, the leopard did not hesitate to immediately punish the unfortunate stray. However, due to standing at a close distance, the mother pig immediately jumped to the rescue. The leopard’s thought of getting an easy meal quickly vanished after the mother humpback’s fierce response.
Humpback pigs have an advantage that is the ability to run at extremely fast speeds, up to 48 km / h when detecting enemies.
Rushing at high speed and using the weapon is a sharp fang, the pig rammed the predator into the air to create space for the cubs to have a chance to escape.
But speed racing with leopards is never a good idea, with gnawing hunger not allowing the leopard to pass up a delicious meal. It only took a few seconds, despite the efforts of the mother pig, the leopard successfully caught the prey and brought it to a place where it was completely eaten in the tree.
