The hippo latches on to the antelope - but instead of shepherding it towards land, it drowns the animal.
"My eight-year-old granddaughter, who was watching the events unfold, innocently thought that the hippo was a hero for trying to rescue a baby kudu," said Carolyn Wridgway, an estate agent who filmed the incident in the Kruger National Park.Once the hippo moves the kudu to the edge of the water, it starts having a tug-of-war with the wild dogs, before trying to chase them away from the dead animal.
According to Wridgway, once the hippo moved away, the wild dogs dragged the kudu behind a bush and started eating it. The dogs later left the carcass for vultures to feast on. "We have never witnessed a kill taking place, so this was exceptionally rare for us and even more so given the nature of the kill," said Wridgway.

WATCH | Mshoza tells Babes to 'Get out before it's too late''As for you Mampintsha, your career is over. You think we're scared of you? Leave Babes alone, she's a child. You shouldn't even be dating her.' Yeah this one I support it 100%! Babes has been warned many times but still she continues with him. I won't be surprised if she drops charges later on. Even her family allowed him in. This statement has been flouted 1 too many times, whenever a popular guy commits a similar offence. The only bad thing is when same is committed by a not popular John Soap who may be a mechanic, we never see cars diverting to get help elsewhere. Career ending threat are biased
