Crocodiles Bite The Face Off Zebra While Crossing Mara River on a Safari in Kenya

- Recently, I was on a Safari at Masai Mara National Park in Kenya this year for the “Great Wildebeest Migration”. Every year during the season of the Great Migration the zebras must take the risk of crossing many rivers in order to get to the grass that they badly need in order to survive. If the zebras do not get to their source of food they may perish. Sometimes, after crossing a river full of hungry crocodiles, the zebras do not find good grass on the other side. Then they will turn around and go back through the same river to face the vicious crocodiles all over again. My Safari guide was a local I met named Jonathan Lenjir. Jonathan was such an amazing guide. He is a Masai Warrior from the Masai tribe in Kenya.
My great joy in life is travel and sharing my travel experiences with others - the good and the bad. If you look at my videos you can see that I try to show extraordinary and beautiful things, even in harsh conditions. I originally posted this video, in particular, because it shows the amazing and strong will of the animals of Masai Mara National Reserve to live, something many of the viewers picked up on.
I did feel very bad for the suffering that the zebra went through. It was very difficult to watch and witness in person. In no way do I wish to disrespect this zebra by showing the fight. She was so very strong, she fought against 4 crocodiles and was still standing. I will never forget how hard this zebra fought for her life and did not give up easily. It makes me feel an even greater respect for life and all living things. Life is so fragile and precious. This happens every day in the wild where no one can see the intense struggle to live that goes on.
One viewer called the zebra in this video "Zebra-heart," like Brave-heart. That's exactly what I was trying to show! Masai Mara National Reserve, like many of the wild places left in this world, is beautiful and harsh - just like life.
It was hard to watch the zebra fight and do nothing. However there was no way I could have tried to save the Zebra from her death. The Masai Mara National Reserve in Kenya does not permit interference and no guns are permitted into the park.

They hold they're pretty under to drown them that role they do is to tear pieces off of the body small enough they can swallow just so you know
@@themostbeautifulwomaninthe9160 Evil? The fact that the crocodiles were having dinner doesn't make them anymore evil than us buying a 2-piece order of (killed) chicken at KFC. The God you are talking about, made this happen.

Please leave a pinned comment that ,' There's nothing wrong if crocs eat the zebra that way , that's how nature works , there's nothing right or wrong in nature , if they don't eat it , they are gonna die of hunger.

I know it’s part of life and the crocs have to survive but damn that last part was tough to watch. That zebra was missing most of its face!
Yes, it is hard to watch. It suffered far too long.

This makes me even more thankful that I’m human and not one of them. I wouldn’t want to die like that. Looks agonizing
That zebra actually tried to fight really hard to break free. You can tell he was in a lot of pain.He just stood there with his jaw ripped open. His energy and will to survive quickly diminished adter that. I know this is nature, but it was hard to watch because that looked so agonizing.
That zebra was a legend it took 5 of them to take it down what a beast died fighting till the end rip

Did he died fighting or die fighting to get a way??? 😂

hey!
@@HJS_Kickz yes
idk about you but one my face was beginning to get literally ripped off my skull i would've just said "yup nope im done." and voluntarily drowned for them. would've died of infection if not blood loss if the zebra got away anyway.

@@onlyenzoYTOkay but it has nothing to do with the video
😂😂😂😂💯💯
@@onlyenzoYT BOY how tf you gon watch this video and then tell me that god exists, if he does exists then he seems like nothing but an evil sadist to me ‼‼
The fact half the face was ripped off that Zebra and it was still gathering all it's strength to try and make it out. Fucking crazy shit. Animals are crazy when stuff like this happens their brain doesn't say anything but "survive" even if it means going through the most brutal torture ever.
The fact that our ancestors not only survived but thrived in the most dangerous continent is incredible. I mean there's bigger, faster and stronger predators literally everywhere.
That's how we managed to drive much of the megafauna outside of Africa to extinction. We are the product of Africa, and therefore it has made us into this very lethal, extremely intelligent super predator.
None of that can match our intelligence. Humans today arent even a shadow of what they used to be. People used to share territory with Cave bears which were up to 12-13 feet tall when standing on 2 legs. They were 2 or 3 times bigger than grizzly bears. Past humans had common meetings with them because both lived in caves.
The key was our intelligence and our social ability. Men have constantly proven to be able to outsmart their prey and show good teamwork, better than what animals would ever show. A sharp mind can beat a sharp sword.
@@NamelessKnightt absolutely…. Developed brains is what moved humans ahead of the rest of the pack
@@wrenchhead6840 it seems that once humans began to cook their food it really altered the human brain in such a way that allowed for large civilizations to develop. New brain power led to shedding the hunter/gatherer lifestyle as the only option, which led to farming, and farming led to a group of humans settling down in one spot and building a community. Learning, creating technology, hospitals, schools, jobs.
That last poor little zebra absolutely fought his heart out until there was nothing left. Even after his face was torn off, he still fought. Much respect little guy..R.I.P.
Its heartbreking.
I'm not a freak of animal RIGHTS and the excesive humanization and sentimentalization of pets and animals, but we all know mammals are capable of feeling love and affection, they recognize humans and other animals in a one to one basis, in captivity they develop caring and affective relationships with humans because they "feel", they know what love is, thats what makes this video so hard, seeing the panic and utter terror of the poor little zebra.
Quite the contrary insects, crocs and snakes and many others are uncapable of these "human" traits in my opinión.
Greetings from Spain
This video is a realistic portrayal of nature. No added fancy music, no deathly strike in every second of the video. That makes this a good video.
That said, those poor zebra's really suffer a lot before they die, so this is not a video for soft hearted people.
Thank you so much for watching. Your comment made my day
No music you say?
There have been many comments suggesting a bridge be built for the zebras to cross the river I understand your sympathy for the zebra. However, the other side of the river is the country of Tanzania. So, it would have to be an international bridge. Also, the Masai Mara wildlife park is trying to stay as natural as possible without creating man-made structures such as bridges. In addition, there are many other rivers the zebras must cross to get to their food source. Should there be bridges built everywhere for the zebras to use? Kenya is a 3rd world county with many other issues that should take priority over building bridges for zebras. Crocodiles can lay and wait on bridges too.
Also, if the crocodiles all starve and die it will throw off the balance of nature.
I know people believe zebras are cute and most people don't find crocodiles to be beautiful. That doesn't mean that crocodiles are evil and zebras are good. Thank you for watching
Well said
Many people don't know the food chain
A bridge for zebras wtaf some people need to learn about the food chain

We all are part of nature my friend, and it has no mercy to any creature
@@AliBeigi-kt3zv The natural state of nature is chaos. Disorder.
@@shareenear9344 let me introduce you to cats.
I don’t understand how people hate on the crocodiles if for them it’s just trying to get a meal to survive. I guess you people didn’t learn science and nature in school
We don't hate alligators. Yes, they are carnivores, they eat herbivores by tearing them to pieces. We only feel sorry for the animals that are eaten alive, and we form a bond with the zebra due to our emotional nature. Just as when we see a person being beaten, we automatically empathize with the person who is beaten and pity him, we also establish the same bond with a zebra that is being torn apart alive, and because of this reaction, we İNVOLUNTARİLY become angry at the crocodile.
I agree
@@Virginiawoolfunozkiziyim1 I didn't... Yes, it sucks the zebra had to die, but if not, the crocodile would have instead. I'm not angry at either one of them. Animals have no evny, anger, or resentment. They are simply trying to survive. When humans needlessly kill each other, that is a time to be upset and hate the killer, not when an animal is trying to survive. I think that anyone who sees the crocodile as wrong here simply lacks the mental capacity to understand that this is how nature is. If you are to judge an animal simply on it's appearance or innate responses, you are no better than a man who would determine who is right or wrong based on race.
This is nature at its work. Unfiltered, unforgiving and uncensored.
So true
The "uncensored" part is especially true for that zebra pp at the start
That zebra definitely deserves all *respect* in the world. What a tough fighter. R.I.P.
Ah, the perfect video to watch at 4AM. Thank you, RUclips recommendations.
You got this at 4 am too???
That zebra is a warrior damn you’d think it would give up eventually but it fought until it couldn’t
Think the same👍
I got emotional on that part where that Zebra could no longer fight and it just stood there with half its face missing...and at its final moments it accepted its fate and disappered into the waters...what a painful moment.
It was very emotional
😭😭😭
I felt the same too!
Same too🤧
It's a part of wildlife folks...
The fact that it took 5 of them to take the Zebra down is honestly impressive. This video is really sad, but it does go to show how durable Zebras actually are.
I think the other crocs was toying with him. One croc would be enough to kill the Zebra
@@nazbmn242 That can depend on the species of the Crocodile.
Is it natural? Yes.
Is it hard to watch? Yes.
The two aren't mutually exclusive.
facts
Not hard to watch at all you people are too damn soft to accept it grow up seriously
@iiCounted-op5jx Boi grow up bet you don't have the courage to kill a house fly you big baby
It’s genuinely scary to think about the fact that “natural” deaths are almost always slow and painful.
This really demonstrates the strength of the crocodiles. The bite force on these guys is no joke. Even lions are scared of them, and elephants remain cautious around the water too.
Elephants >>> croc
Lions are not afraid of crocs

0:29 I love how he has it blurred and then just for no reason unblurs it when you can still see it lmao
LOL
Lol
It was as useful as my ex
The thing is, when you realize that the zebra was getting its skin ripped off slowly, and it was pinched by the crocodile, imagine the pain it wouldve gone trhough, poor thing.
Poor... wonderful zebra ❤
the fact that zebra lost have its face and kept trying to escape is impressive
Yes, he fought hard.
And his fighting probably saved some of this friends.
Because this animal is stupid. It is obvious that even the dumbest person would never find himself in such a situation, and if a person found himself in such a situation, he would give up, not because the person is weak, but because the person is smart enough to make the decision to die. Humans would sacrifice even more lives if necessary to take revenge; most animals are incapable of this, and are even incapable of accepting their own death.
Huge respect to the Zebra, bro fought till his last breath.
I can’t imagine the pain that zebra had to go through. They were a true fighter till the end.
Prolly got so much it didn’t feel the pain anymore like shock
Look how the crocodiles wait patiently to attack, even if the zebras are right in their faces! Very strategic and incredibly smart, wouldn't expect anything less from an apex predator. I know a lot of people are shocked by this kinda footage, but it shows us what nature is truly like and I find it amazing and beautiful. It's reality and the circle of life. 🐊🦓
Great comment. Thanks!
Nature is beautiful but a zebra suffering with its face hanging off is not. Would you find it beautiful if your loved ones ribs were hanging out after being smashed by a train?

In addition, there are many other rivers the zebras must cross to get to their food source. Should there be bridges built everywhere for the zebras to use? You would need to build a bridge every few hundred feet for hundreds of miles. Even then the animals might not choose to even use the bridge. The Crocodiles can also lay and wait on top of bridges too. Kenya is a 3rd world county with many other issues that should take priority over building bridges for zebras.
Also, if the crocodiles all starve and die it will throw off the balance of nature. It would have tragic consequences.
I know people believe zebras are cute and most people don't find crocodiles to be beautiful. That doesn't mean that crocodiles are evil and zebras are good. Thank you for watching.
True that, if there were bridges around then all the prey would use them and crocodiles would die starving
Crocs gotta eat.
If the hunting fraternity were to post a video of a fox with blood visible, they would be demonetised by RUclips yet this terrible savagery can be viewed by children!

Oh my God
Can’t imagine how much that hurt. Always gut wrenching to watch but fascinating at the same time
To humans it’s cruel but it’s just the way the wild works. The food chain is a real thing.
The zebra was high on adrenaline. It was probably less painful, than it looks like. That's an effect heavily hurted humans have too.
Ladies and gentlemen, I’d like to say that’s what an actual fighter looks like, a fighter who despite being horribly injured will still go out with courage with no fear and fight against its enemies, what a legend this zebra is
Its just instincts bruh" if you put your hand in a fire" you will automatically pull it out"
@@bricktop2090 no! Is a heroe endeed. He sacrifice self so his girl friend stay safe. A real Leonardo Di Caprio.
It had it's face ripped off. It's in shock.
This scene is like Robert Baratheon talking about war stories and bard's songs.
"They don't sing about them shitting themselves." Here it's "they don't sing about faces being chewed off."
The Zebra appeared visibly stunned from the pain and unable to fight back. Don't know where you people get ' the Zebra fought hard' from. It didn't buck or anything.
But still, it's dead.
Why do people in the comment section flamed the crocs?
Its part of the nature and circle of life
Your little comment aint gonna save those zebras and make the crocs vegan...

Let's be real, probably nothing. The amount of adrenaline, or whatever is closest to that is probably through the roof. I doubt they felt much other than the urge to survive
@@gmx0413 Yea naw if someone rips your face off and your spurting blood everywhere I don't care how much adrenalin your in your fucking feeling that shit lmao
Yeah I don't think that was intentional, Zebra was tryna go around the croc.
"Took one for the team" yeah sure lol
What a horrible, agonizing way to go. I can’t imagine the kind of pain he was in.
Imagine how happy the crocodile felt for catching something instead.

💀💀💯💯
That Zebra was a freaking warrior till the end it's face is hanging off and it's still not going down without a fight glad they just finished him off tho it was gonna die either way but still incredible the will to live on.
The bird in the back is like, "Well better pickup a few snacks while they are busy". 😂😂
Fascinating, terrifying, and sad all in one. Poor buddy. He was a bad dude though and kept fighting. I’m glad they took him though as it would have been awful for him/her to survive for a while with no face. Would’ve starved to death or been infected and died a horrible slow death.
I pray that these animals go into shock in such instances and don’t feel a thing. 🙏
Thanks for watching.
That was a tense watch, was gritting my teeth and clenching my fists watching that zebra take one for the team.

Joking aside, when the zebra went down at the end, only then did i breathe a sigh of relief.

That little zebra fought so very hard. The fight to live is inspiring. She took on 5 crocodiles in her last battle for survival! She will not be forgotten!
Those zebra are so powerful we don’t give them enough credit he was still fighting them off even with half his face off. Rest in paradise. Even lions think twice trying to kill a zebra and only do that if they are in a pack.

I imagine blood lose, close to shock and difficulty breathing with damaged nasal passages.
Really hate reptiles.
Crocs brain is the size of a walnut.
Eat, sleep, make little killers.
Things were created this way
welcome to the beautiful but not so wholesome side of mother nature
Yes, I can imagine.
But idiots who say: that's nature, can't.
Cause they are very comfortable and brave in front of the phone.
They're not in that zebra's place.
If they were, they would sh!t themselves instantly, and wouldn't be so "brave" anymore.
Disgusting cowards.
The fact that SOME people felt bad because the guy didn't commit suicide by attempting to save the zebra just displays how screwed humanity is
I know right. I have had a thousand comments telling me I should have jumped in there to rescue the zebra. :)
humanity?? LOL it's animal bro 🤣🤣

They’re saying people telling Dr. Adam Norten to risk his life for how nature works are twisted and they’re humans this person isn’t talking about the animals
These people are fatherless, i dont think they would do this if they was the guy.
Atleast we have some valid human beings I'm this reply thread
Our lives are so easy compared to that shiiet
Fun Fact: A group of zebras can be called a “Dazzle”. This name comes from the dazzling motion effect of a group of running zebras. Some zoologists think zebras use their stripes as camouflage when the heard is in a big group to confuse predators. This makes it more difficult to single out individual zebras to attack. I like that they are called a Dazzle. They are dazzling!
Bruhh
Yep. I’ve never been more mortified and fascinated in my entire life. To see the zebra stand there with no nose and face completely bloody still left me speechless. Just nothing he could do surrounded by 5 crocks that were already ripping his body apart. No death roll. Just crunching him. I wish I never found this video.
Sorry, I know it is hard to watch
They say, *Life ain't butterflies and rainbow.* Life hides a very dark side on the other side. Fortunately we don't get to see much of it.
@@HoRiZoN- yeah I see that now. Just imagine the pain he felt as he fought. They took him apart and he saw them eating his flesh. So horrifying.
@@TheCreoleSon89 That was a very horrible way to go, Honestly I was hoping that they drown him as fast as possible so he doesn't suffer that much.
That's why I have a lot of respect for Lions, Tigers, cheetahs (Felidae Animals in general) which they kill their prey before start chewing on them. Not like Crocodiles or wild dogs where they will take the prey apart while it's atill alive.
@@HoRiZoN- they were too busy stealing his guts slowly consuming him alive to drown his. Just can’t get that image out of my head. Poor zebra. Life goes on though. I’ll shake it off eventually.
To everyone asking why the photographer didn’t try to help, as gruesome as it is, this is a situation where you SHOULD NOT HELP.
Trying to scare the remaining zebra away from the water would separate the herd, which in itself is already a huge problem. Zebra find strength in numbers, and cutting those numbers down will decrease their chances at survival.
On top of that, crocodiles need to eat too. They were waiting for so long because they were picking off the weakest zebra they could find. As terrible as it is to watch an animal die, predators picking off the weak ones only makes sure that only the strongest members of the herd survive. It all goes full circle. Zebras get to migrate to where they need to go, crocodiles pick off one or two weak ones, and the herd won’t have to care for any stragglers.
Still not convinced? This is just the natural order of things. The only time you should intervene with nature is to either protect an endangered species or if the danger is caused by human error. A crocodile needing to eat is not human error.
Don’t feel too bad for this zebra. Zebras aren’t so innocent either. Males are known for killing foals (baby zebras) to establish dominance.
Y'all, I get that the camera's shaking a lot, but this isn't some National Geographic Channel
It's literally something this guy caught on camera and wanted to post; it doesn't have to be perfect (and at least it has what you came here to watch)
Thank you so much. You are correct.
This reminds us that nature has two faces, one that is beautiful and one that is absolutely terrifying
This would be so insane to see in person. That poor zebra, she fought so hard. Didn't stand a chance.
It was insane to see this in person.
Brutal af but it’s nature
Fun Fact: Did you know that crocodiles can go for several months without eating? In extreme cases, they can go 3 years without eating anything! They conserve their energy by staying motionless or moving slow.
But if one crocodile went for three years without eating or hunting anything then that would mean it’d be out of practice.
@@enderethan144 not really
Don't blame the crocodile for being a crocodile, this is nature. We've been doing the same thing to other animals like Mammoths and other big mammals during the ice age in order to survive and the crocodile is doing the same.
actually we still do that in much larger numbers
He fought till his death he wasn't like poor deers ...😢😢 Rest in peace and sorry God I saw this 😢😢
1. This isint in a zoo
2. what the hell is the zookeeper supposed to do?
3. its nature, things die
True
That was hecking brutal man. I can’t imagine how painful that must have been.
Thing that sucks is the poor zebra is alive all the way till the end. Can’t imagine the pain it was feeling before it finally passed away.😢
The worst thing is that the crocodiles tried to put her in the water to drown her and kill her quickly, but she kept fighting, prolonging her suffering.

This video is a reality check to the value of life, we all romanticise life and deaf, we think that there is something else, but life is brutal, life is no Disney movie.
True
It's very sad and disturbing to see an animal die in a brutal and painful way, but at the same time, it's part of nature. The crocodiles had to eat in order to survive.
@@gulihuli5259 They’re just animals, don’t be ignorant
I would like to see them eat one another.
No problem if they won't survive. Horrible creatures, only causing horrific pain. It's nature...until a human or a dog gets grabbed by a croc.
@@evonjohnson4078 they do
@@joannad.9082 so you should remove every predator then...hyenas are even more brutal even lions are sk better remove every predator
That was extremely hard to watch knowing that zebra was in immense pain and on top of that, trying to breathe.
Hormones take over till its last breath to easy its pain.
I'm pretty sure the Zebra did not experience that much pain given the extreme amount of stress and adrenaline it must have been under.
True, it’s a terrible, terrible death…
I know, nature can be tough and cruel sometimes, but God bless that poor zebra and may its soul rest in peace
dude im imagining that the zebra was so happy excited to reunite with his family until..... this happened :((
To clarify the purpose of the crocodile's "Death roll":
Crocodiles do have extremely powerful jaws that clamp tight on their prey, but they do not have the cutting teeth that we have in the front upper and lower jaws of our mouths. In order to pull a chunk of meat off of their prey, a crocodile twists or rolls its body to tear a piece loose. Animals have had to learn ways to pull apart their prey. This is also why, if you own a dog, that dog will bring its toy to you in its mouth and allow you to pull on that toy while the dog pulls voraciously. Dogs in the wild attack their prey in packs and several of them will pull at a chunk of flesh to tear it into smaller pieces that the dogs can actually eat.
The crocodiles' death roll is not to drown their prey. Crocodiles do not wait until their prey is dead to start eating its flesh.
Class dismissed.
I just gained 1,000 more brain cells reading this.
Thank you for your comment. I didn't know that about the death roll before. I am still learning.
Most often there will be more than one croc on the same animal doing the roll, seemingly working together, to get a manageable piece that they can swallow whole since they do not chew
It all depends. There are situations where the death roll is performed in order to drown the prey and there are also situations where it is performed to pull out a chunk of flesh. Crocs mostly eat their prey when they are already dead. However, there are situations where they may start eating when the prey is still alive. Although it's rare, it still happens from time to time. In short It all depends.
@@B_Brandon Sorry, but you are giving the crocodiles too much credit. yes, they do pull their prey out to the deeper waters, where it is harder for the prey to get away, but the sole purpose of the "death rolls" is to tear away pieces of flesh. Crocs simply do not have the ability to bite off pieces of food the way we do. Spinning their bodies while latching onto a bite of flesh is the only way crocs can tear off a chunk of meat that can be swallowed. Crocs start eating as soon as it is clear that their prey will not escape. They do not care if their prey is alive or dead. Crocs are fairly simple. Why waste any more time than is needed to start feeding? That is Nature.
God after I saw it’s face get ripped off I was just hoping for the crocs to finish him off. I can’t imagine how painful that must’ve been.
Man imagine how much pain the zebra experienced respect to the zebra fly high🕊❤
Animals are truly built different. The fact that Zebra was trying to struggle and not quit because of the pain says a lot.
The fact that I know this is nature, but just watching this makes me feel horrified. It’s absolutely horrifying to watch even though it’s how life is.
You disgust me, you coward. This is my first and final reply to you, loser. lol
@@Rishi123456789 wot?
This pretty much sums up life since 2019
You're allowed to be disturbed even though you know it's just life. I'd argue that's MORE reason to be disturbed. Stuff like this happens every day,even sometimes to humans, and we can't forget that. It's good to remain grounded and understand that life isn't all sunshine and rainbows and that there's true darkness. But there is good aswell and that's what makes life beautiful.
@@JonnieK2006 very well said 💯💯
I know it’s nature, but man that poor zebra, made me cry 😢

Comments section go wild lmao little kids saying to save the zebra they shouldn’t even be looking at this😭 and then people are complaining about the cameraman
Yes!!!!!!
Bird is in the background like "well now that they are busy, I'll just go about my business skimming the water now..."
Nature is brutal, and that is undeniable, however, it's beautiful how it just works. Great video, mate, great job
Thank you so much!
This is the most burtal crocodile feasting Ive ever seen.
Extremely burtal. Incredible burtality.
Easy to see why intelligence prevailed in prehistoric humans.
Great point to bring up ancient humans would have been more weary when it comes to waters like this from predators
They saw the zebras getting ripped apart by the crocs and learnt not to play lemmings and follow
Imagine there being 500 zebras and your the one that has to be eaten
Well that is enough internet for today
XD
I would like to take this moment to thank our ancestors for climbing to the top of food chain 😅

@@Dr_Adam why you putting a smiling face-
God made us to be on top of Food Chain. God made this whole earth for us. Can't you see how we can rule all the creatures in it as per our will and intelligence. Nothing thankful to our ancestors for this one, but thank your parents that they raised you till you can be able to defend yourself.

Crazy. We think we're peak evolution? Nah. It's gators/crocs. Haven't had a reason to change for millions of years. The perfect survival animal.
Our species is as narcissistic as it comes.
Let's see how it fights against a nuclear bomb or a vulcan minigun.
I dont believe in evolution..but everyone has their belief of how the world came into existence I guess...
Jaguars kill these things easily btw
the way it's still fighting and kicking for so long is amazing...
