Clash of the titans, two rhinos fight for territory

It was only the second time in ten years that this safari guide witnessed two rhinos fighting.

MBOMBELA – Safari camp owner, Jean-Marc Defcamp, recently saw a wild life event only for the second time in ten years, two rhinos fighting for territory.

An alpha male was challenged by a younger rhino and the intimidation and clashing of horns went on for quite a while with neat footwork making a difference.

“It was such an experience. To see something like this just make it so worthwhile going out there at all times,” said Defcamp.
