00:00 (water gurgling)
00:01 Without warning, the pit stop becomes a rock crossing.
00:04 This is exactly where he snatched the calf.
00:17 It's not only a few stragglers,
00:21 the entire herd follows the leaders across.
00:28 It's an opportunity to go big and catch one outright.
00:31 And not a calf.
00:37 He's after a mature male wildebeest.
00:39 He doesn't think about the risk, just the reward.
00:48 (dramatic music)
00:51 In the mayhem, wildebeest trample everything in their path,
01:15 but DC holds firm.
01:16 (dramatic music)
01:19 His grip cripples the wildebeest
01:35 and makes him easy to manipulate.
01:36 The dry season has had an impact.
01:43 The pool's no longer deep enough for a quick death.
01:46 (wildebeest grunting)
01:48 But DC's got a bigger problem.
01:50 One and a half tons of pool mate
01:53 who's cranky about the commotion.
01:55 Every additional twist and turn
02:00 draws on DC's vital energy reserves.
02:02 Already strained when he's underwater with no air.
02:06 DC's got to drown the wildebeest quickly
02:10 to stop the struggling and placate his pool mate.
02:14 (water splashing)
02:17 He may be a vegetarian,
02:42 but an angry hippo can bite a croc in two.
02:45 Luckily for DC,
02:52 he takes his frustration out on the wildebeest.
02:56 (wildebeest grunting)
03:11 Peace is restored to his pool
03:12 and DC has provisions for the lean season
03:17 thanks to an unlikely assist.
