The photographer of the Daily Mail, said the scene was so fast that he had not realized the fact until reviewed frame by frame. "I saw the lioness move cautiously toward the river, and then there was a big splash in the water," said Dierickx, a Belgian of 48 years.
"The sequence of images was taken in just a second," he said and admits that it is fortunate that the crocodile has not mortally wounded the lion, because his mouth was stuck between his legs.
Finally, he mentions that the lioness risked his own life to allow the passage of two pups and two adults, according to the news portal Infobae.
"The animal itself was bitten on the nose, but thanks to his intervention, two kids and two adults were able to cross the river without suffering any harm," he said. | |
