Cheetah Tackle
EXCLUSIVE
By Aimee Braniff Cree
ACTION PACKED images of two cheetahs rugby tacking a topi antelope have been captured.
In the thrilling images we see two cheetahs in pursuit of an antelope before they team up to take it down with swift bites to the body.
Also captured is the moment the cheetah attempts to fake out its prey by strolling past before turning on it.
These images were captured by photographer Irena Or (39) from Rosh Haayin, Israel.
Irena shot the action packed sequence on her Cannon R5 in Maasai Mara, Kenya.
“I participated in a nature photography trip to Kenya, for several days we were following the famous, Mbili-Bora male cheetahs which were looking for prey after a few unsuccessful attempts,” said Irena.
“We were stopping for a breakfast not far from the cheetahs when we got reports that the cheetahs spotted an antelope and began moving towards it.
“We rushed with our trucks to the scene and immediately identified the chase in action.
“I was excited to meet the Mbili-Bora cheetahs once again and witness them in action at the most realistic scene of their hunt.
“I believe that the one where the antelope is fighting for its life and jumping high in the air trying to get rid of the cheetahs will be my favourite.
“It perfectly shows an unfiltered scene of nature.
“I felt the adrenaline rush of being part of an actual hunt but was hoping to be closer to the events.
“The look on the face of people seeing the photos for the first time is priceless, they are amazed by the proximity to the action.”
