Mother wildebeest risked her life frantically to use her sharp horns to destroy the leopard to save the innocent cubs

Wildebeest is a species with a very high herd instinct, in which the young will be protected by the mother and the adults in the herd.

Despite possessing size, weight and strength superior to leopards, wildebeest is still one of leopard’s favorite prey targets.

This dramatic moment of the power of motherhood was captured at a Nature Reserve in South Africa. The clip shows the moment a leopard stalks and silently approaches the mother and baby blue wildebeest.

Realizing the opportunity to come, leopards immediately rushed out, aiming at the wildebeest to attack. Panicked by the sudden appearance of the leopard, the mother and daughter immediately ran away, but the baby antelope was quickly captured by the leopard.

Realizing that her baby was attacked by a leopard, the mother wildebeest returned, using her horns to ram the leopard to rescue her baby.

Being attacked by surprise, the leopard had to retreat, accepting to give up the hunt. After that, the antelope mother and daughter were still standing nearby, but the predator did not dare to rush forward to attack the mother and daughter a second time.
