Breathtaking Moment When 2 Lions Caught An Antelope As Stunned Drivers Watch From Their Cars (Photos)

Photographer girl captures a breathtaking moment when beasts caught a helpless antelope as stunned tourists watch just inches away from open car windows.

23-year old Briton amateur photographer, Carolyn Dunford, who is completing an internship at Kruger National Park, South Africa, has a breathtaking moment when two lions brought down and savaged an antelope just inches from the cars of stunned tourists at a game reserve.

She captured the bloody drama along with wide-eyed nature-lovers with some watching the spectacle through their car windows wide open. She said;

"The kudu (a type of antelope) burst from the bushes and the lions chased it into the cars. The first lion grabbed onto its back and the second came in and grabbed its throat. They both tackled it."

The biology graduate from Romsey, Hampshire, was taking an early morning drive through the park when she came across the rare scene and pulled out her camera.

"I think I had been driving for about 45 minutes and at about 7.45am, I saw a group of cars crawling along. I pulled up with them and there were the two lions walking towards me. One of them saw the kudu in the bushes and I saw the lion crouch."

Her photographs also show the beasts tear apart their catch as tourists look on.

"As a biologist, I understand the circle of life. For me it was really fascinating to watch a lion hunt. It's a privilege to see it happen and the power of the lions. It was amazing. I love being right in the heart of the action."
