This clip starts with a shot of a mara crocodile swimming through muddy water. You hear some chatter in the background as the next scene unfolds. Several zebras have made it across the river and are making their way up onto the rocks to safety. It’s the great migration — even though this river is home to some of the largest crocodiles in the world, the zebras know no other path than through. There’s one zebra that catches the eye of a croc. It’s trying to get through the water but it’s struggling as if its feet are sinking into the mud. There are several others behind it that seem to be struggling as well, except they’re not making any headway. Their greater struggle helps them because it isolates the one who’s managing to forge ahead. The croc is not hesitant for a moment. It goes right for it, twists its body around, and bites the back of the zebra’s neck. A woman exclaims as it happens. The croc pushes it down into the water while the surrounding zebras focus solely on getting out of the water as quickly as possible. Both the croc and zebra disappear under the muddy waters for several moments as the other zebras scramble onto the rocks. The drowning, attacked zebra emerges for a moment and you watch as it takes its last breath, splashes of water coming out through its nose. It disappears again underwater to meet its final fate. The video cuts to another scene of a zebra struggling. The spectators don’t see it at first because it’s camouflaged well, but a croc has already taken a bite of the zebra. The zebra can’t escape the bite on its back and just as it’s looking about, the previously drowned zebra’s body bobs up momentarily just a few feet ahead of it. It’s tragic and not easy to watch. But it’s nature.
