Viral Video: Mother Giraffe Chases Hyena Away To Protect Her Calf

Viral Video: Mother Giraffe Chases Hyena Away To Protect Her Calf

The caption for the video states, "Mother Giraffe protects her baby from a hyena."

An old proverb states that a mother will do anything for her child, and a newly popular wildlife video has once again demonstrated this. A mother giraffe's strong protective instinct is on display in the video.

A giraffe standing with its baby is visible in the video. She makes every effort to keep the calf safe. So when the hyena attempts to approach, she shoos it away.

The mother giraffe's aggressive move startled the carnivore, who bolted away right away.

The video has gotten a lot of online reactions from social media users.

"I have seen deer behave in this manner when their young are perceived to be in danger," commented one user.

"This is how a mother ought to protect her child-whether inside or outside the womb," wrote another user.

"I found out that giraffes can be very dangerous when threatened-downright aggressive. In the San Diego Wildlife Sanctuary, a Giraffe hurt a Rhino pretty badly when it went after her baby. Mothers in any situation will depend heavily on their children's aggression. That's mom's job," commented a third user.

"Jaiswal Has Run Ahead Of Gill": Ex-India Star's Massive T20 WC Verdict

Former India opener Aakash Chopra has suggested that Yashasvi Jaiswal is slightly ahead of Shubman Gill in the pecking order as captain Rohit Sharma's partner at the top in T20Is. Since making his debut last year, Jaiswal has been in stunning form in the shortest format of the game. Gill's form, on the other hand, has dipped since the ODI World Cup last year in India. With the T20 World Cup scheduled to be held later this year, Chopra feels Jaiswal will open the innings with Rohit during the tournament. "It's clear that Yashasvi Jaiswal has run ahead of Shubman Gill. Yashasvi is ahead in the two-horse race, Gill is lagging slightly behind. Gill was played in the first match, dropped in the second, and wasn't played in the third as well," Chopra said on his YouTube channel. Jaiswal helped India beat Afghanistan in the second T20I earlier this week, scoring a quickfire fifty. Considering his recent form across formats, Chopra emphasised that Jaiswal has ...
