A gnu was being dragged underwater by a crocodile after being bitten. A hippo noticed the struggling gnu and made its way through the water to intervene. The hippo scared away the crocodile and protected the weakening gnu, guiding it back to shore and guarding it from further attacks by the crocodile.

by a crocodile, the large antelope is seen being dragged slowly under the water. But in a
miraculous turn of events, a nearby hippo is seen making its way across the water to help the
animal in its hour of need.
