CROC VS BAMBI

A BAMBI was dramatically caught in mid-air by a greedy Nile crocodile in a once-in-a-million flying pincer move. Trying to cross a river can be a dangerous task - especially if you happen to be a baby Thomson's gazelle. Sadly for this cutie taking a flying leap across a crocodile-infested part of the Kenyan Mara River was not the best tactic. Rather than gracefully hopping to the other side this Bambi was dinner for a pack of hungry crocs. French wildlife photographers Michel and Christine Denis-Huot were watching antelopes crossing the river when they witnessed the dramatic moment.
