A really entertaining video shows an ostrich and cheetah having a direct contact.
Seeing that the cheetah was alone, the ostrich wanted to jump in to attack, but had to turn around and run away because the cheetah was looking for a “death battle”.
The African ostrich is the largest living ostrich. The largest member of this species can grow up to 3 m tall, weigh 135 kg and run faster than horses.
Unable to defend, the female ostrich tried to run away but could not escape the leopards. The onslaught from three sides burned the bird’s strength. Finally, the ostrich was knocked down by 3 leopards, signaling a painful death.
Leopards are masters of high-speed hunts. Their slim bodies and flexible legs allow them to accelerate, close the gap and take down slow prey. Due to its modest size, cheetahs often choose small prey such as antelope and zebra.
Unlike lions, cheetahs live alone and hunt alone. However, sometimes cheetahs often team up to take down large prey. The video recorded the process of hunting 2 ostriches of 3 journalists.
The ostrich is a large, but shy bird. This bird tends to run away when in danger. Their long and dexterous legs allow them to escape quickly. In the event of an emergency, the ostrich can launch a powerful kick that stuns and even injures the enemy.
