Zebra bites crocodile and escapes with his life

Zebras are mammals that belong to the horse family, the equidae, native to central and southern Africa. This animal's coat consists of a set of contrasting color stripes, with its body all white and some black stripes, arranged vertically, except on the legs, where they are horizontal. They are generally social animals that live from small harems to large herds. Because they are sociable animals, they do everything together, from eating in groups, escaping from predators, or even crossing a river infested with hungry crocodiles. This stunning video shows a brutal fight for survival between a zebra and a crocodile. The fight lasts for a few minutes and at no point does the crocodile release the zebra, which struggles insistently in an attempt to escape. Although it appears almost motionless at first, as the video unfolds, it can be seen that the zebra bites the reptile's mouth to escape its attack. The bite was so violent that it managed to make that crocodile give up trying to eat the zebra, and it escaped limping and with an injury to its back leg, but escaped with its life. Crocodiles are the largest and heaviest living reptiles. The largest species in the world, the saltwater crocodile, occurs in northern Australia, with male individuals measuring up to 7 meters in length and weighing around a ton. In second place is the Nile crocodile, which is the largest species in Africa and can measure around 5 meters in length and weigh 750 kilos. On the other hand, the smallest crocodile in the world is the dwarf crocodile. This species has a mass of around 18 to 32 kilograms and usually measures no more than two meters in length.
