A guide at Serondella in the Greater Kruger Park managed to capture the battle between would-be prey (a nyala) and predator (a lone wild dog) on video.
In the footage posted on LatestSightings.com, one can see the buck head for the water in an attempt to drown the wild dog, and free itself from its teeth.
The nyala’s desperate screams attract lions and results in the wild dog admitting defeat.
