Annette Kirby, The Kill and revival (Travel (2018))

Witnessing a lioness kill one large wildebeest, then catch a smaller one and 'kill' it was an experience not witnessed by many. It is part of the life cycle of nature on the Mara and often you only see the end results. To make this experience even more amazing was the revival of the young wildebeest approximately 15 minutes after it was assumed to be dead. It started to move, wriggle and staggered to it's feet. Then as though nothing had happened it ran and joined the rest of the wildebeest which had successfully crossed the river and weren't attached by the lioness.
