Hyenas allegedly killing a black rhino, sadly no background besides image posted.

According to the South African Wildlife College, this was actually an injured white rhinoceros cow. Wildlife officials were tasked with finding a white rhino that was reported limping, and found her fighting the pack of hyenas at a dam.

The pilot requested support from field rangers to chase off the hyenas until the game capture team could get to Manyeleti from Nelspruit. He proceeded to do a number of low-level passes over the scene for at least 45 minutes to chase the hyenas off the animal and keep them at bay while the field rangers rushed to the area. He managed to keep them off until the field rangers were about five minutes away and then unfortunately the rhino tired and they managed to push her head under the water one more time and drowned her.

A subsequent necropsy by Dr. Kyle Piers, who is attached to the Hluvukani Animal Clinic, provisionally indicates that the rhino’s left front leg was badly injured and that there was trauma to its left lung. There was also muddy water in her airway and sinus. The possibility of her being a victim of a poaching incident has not been discounted.

The link has additional photos of the fight (I don't know why they're not showing up on here).

For a matchup so unbalanced that it'd be a stomp if someone made it here: A lion pride goes after a very unlucky leopard:

theropod: Yes. Shit. I don’t think the free world had any real plan B or contingency for the worst case scenario that has apparently ended up happening. Things were bad enough as it is, and nobody really has any capacity left to deal with it getting even shittier. Nov 6, 2024 19:38:01 GMT 5

Infinity Blade: I imagine tyrannosaurs having finesse through their premaxillary teeth. We know they could delicately scrape meat off of bones with those if they wanted to. Aug 28, 2024 1:29:55 GMT 5

Supercommunist: Anyone find it kind of weird how some people portay gigantosaurus as a finese predator compared to a tyrannosaurus? Given that tyrannosaurus had the smaller gape and the duller teeth, wouldn't it require more precision? Aug 27, 2024 23:49:00 GMT 5
