Gazelle Mum Battles Huge Martial Eagle to Save Baby | World Wild Web
This is the incredible moment a gazelle mum charged headfirst at a huge eagle to try and save her newborn baby.
Safari guide Kevin Sayialel was guiding guests resident at Great Plains Conservation's Mara Plains Camp, Kenya, on October 27 when he spotted a martial eagle with prey in its claws.
The extraordinary footage filmed by Kevin showed the brave mother running directly at the eagle, whose wingspan can reach eight feet long.
Despite repeatedly sending the eagle flying into the air to escape, unfortunately, the gazelle’s fawn, only a few days old, could not be saved.
Kevin said: “In my 14 years as a guide for Great Plains Conservation, I have never seen anything like this before.
“We had just started our evening game drive when I spotted the eagle diving. I drove straight over, where the eagle was fighting with a Thomson's gazelle.
“The fight lasted for a few minutes, and eventually, the eagle ended up taking the fawn.
“Just like any mother, gazelles will defend their young as much as they can, but this actual sort of action I had never seen before.”
