00:00 (birds chirping)
00:02 Cheetahs specialize in hunting at speed.
00:13 Though fast, they are fragile creatures,
00:18 built to sprint after small prey.
00:20 They don't have the strength or weight of a lion
00:24 to bring down large animals.
00:26 This male is different.
00:30 He doesn't hunt alone.
00:31 He's learned that there is strength in numbers,
00:35 but the presence of their young around is a real danger
00:38 and will disrupt the hunting process.
00:40 Zebras are very strong and difficult to hunt,
00:46 especially for cheetahs.
00:47 But the cubs are hungry, and if they get right,
00:52 the rewards are huge.
00:55 As soon as they approach the herd of zebras,
00:57 one of the cubs comes face to face with this stallion,
01:01 who chased him down and killed him with a powerful kick.
01:26 Cheetahs are still looking to fill their stomachs,
01:29 and at the same time, they will now need to take revenge.
01:33 The cheetahs rush to attack the herd,
01:39 and from the start, they have targeted the little foal.
01:41 Unfortunately for them, he was next to his mother.
01:45 The mother defends her son fiercely and forcefully.
01:53 (zebra barking)
01:56 A direct kick from a zebra could easily crush their skull.
02:00 There were times when it felt just too close.
02:05 But the chase ended with the cheetahs being successful
02:10 in grabbing the calf and obtaining prey
02:12 that silenced their hunger.
02:14 They lost one of the cubs, but they managed to get revenge.
