An unusual predation occurred at a water hole, when a black-backed jackal took on a marabou stork. Although the stork fought valiantly, once the jackal clamped its jaws on its neck, its fate was sealed.
Seeing the altercation, Dian Swanepoel recorded the incident and sent his account to Latest Sightings. He filmed it at Kubu Dam in the Pilanesberg National Park.
As Dian’s video begins, two young elephants splash and spray each other playfully at the water’s edge. However, as he watched, he noticed a more serious battle underway.
